Theme development

I am trying to override the default Organic Groups view function with phptemplate. When I add the funciton

function phptemplate_og_view(&$node, $teaser = FALSE, $page = FALSE) {
     return 'THIS IS ONLY A TEST';
}

Two warnings are displayed when I try to view the organic groups home page

warning: array_key_exists(): The second argument should be either an array or an object in /big/dom/xacslaw/www/modules/node.module on line 628.

Hi,

I've been trying to develop a new private theme using the PHPTemplate engine since 2 days now and there's still a problem that's preventing me from achieving my work.

The variables $sidebar_left and $sidebar_right are always empty. No matter what I do, they always contain nothing. They are also empty when using the civicspace theme, but they have the correct content when using the kubrick theme.

I've check their source codes and I don't see any difference that would lead $sidebar_left and $sidebar_right to be forever null.

Hello,

i use a design based on bluemarine for phptemplate and have installed flatforum and the modified templates from http://www.drupalart.com/phpbb and for special Design some parts from http://www.drupalcenter.de/forum

Hi guys,
I need some further understanding as how to customize a theme.

I found the instructions in the handbook as how to create a different page.tpl.php for the home page and the sub pages (the nodes themselves). However I can't seem to figure out how to create different content on home and sub pages. For example if I don't want the Sumbitted by... to appear on the home page, but I do want it on the subpages.

Help would be highly appreciated.
Thank you!
Ivan

I'm looking for a good theme to start hacking a three column liquid layout layout from. The theme must be phptemplate and must be css only. No TABLES!!! It's 2005, for godssakes.

Any thoughts where to begin? All the themes I've played with on this site seem to have their limitations.

PS

The end result should look like http://varnelis.net, but it should be liquid.

Hi

I have been checking out and using Drupal for a few months now.

I want to integrate my site into Drupal. However, I need someone to design a template for my site.

If you are interested please contact me via my contacts on Drupal.org.

We can discuss the price and what exactly I require.
