ABOUT THE FOLIAGE THEME: |
Upload the theme as usual to your sites/all/themes directory |
| 6 |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
and enable it on admin/build/themes |
|
The Foliage theme is based on the Blue Marine theme shipped with Drupal 4.7. |
|
|
Changes have been made to give the theme more colours and a fixed centred |
|
|
width, supporting screen resolutions of 1024 pixels and up. The theme |
|
|
validates, and is tested in major browsers. |

The header is positioned on top of the middle column directly below the |

mission statement. |
|
shows up perfectly. To avoid that, copy the faviocon to your website root. |

CHANGELOG (compared to the 6.x-1.3 version) |
| 42 |
The following (free) tools have been of fantastic value during development: |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
| 43 |
- Web Developer Extension | http://chrispederick.com/work/webdeveloper/ |
- Bug fix: Display error for the OpenId login link |
| 44 |
- Notepad++ text editor | http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/uk/site.htm |
- Bug fix: Images disappear in IE 6 when using "Sticky at Top of Lists" |
| 45 |
- FileZilla FTP Client | http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/ |
- Bug fix: Links in the left column not clickable in Safari 2.x |
| 46 |
- TortoiseCVS client | http://www.tortoisecvs.org/ |
- Footer block region added |
| 47 |
|
|
| 48 |
|
- Some users have reported that the content column overlaps the right column on pages with tables (like admin/build/themes, tracking pages or certain forum pages). |
| 49 |
CONTACT |
This can not really be fixed on all pages because the table widths are calculated dynamically by scripts inside the Drupal core. Even Garland and Bluemarine are affected by this - so this is rather something that should be fixed inside Drupal than in the themes. |
| 50 |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
I managed to fix it on the forum pages but for admin/build/themes and for the tracking pages only a workaround helped: the right column is now hidden on those pages. |

If you do not want this you can simply remove this part from the beginning of page.tpl.php: |
| 52 |
|
<?php if ((arg(2) == 'themes') || (arg(2) == 'track')) { ?> |
| 53 |
|
<style type="text/css"> |
| 54 |
|
#outerColumn {border-right: none !important;} |
| 55 |
|
#rightCol {display: none;} |
| 56 |
|
</style> |

<?php } ?> |
