AT-Lite - AutoTheme HTML Theme System - v.87

Author: Shawn McKenzie

Zikula Version: Zikula 1.0.0

Category: Utility

API Compliancy: No

pnRender Compliancy: No

Description:

AutoTheme is an HTML Theme System currently supporting Zikula, PostNuke, PHP-Nuke,  MD-Pro Content Management Systems (CMS) osCommerce and CRE Loaded shopping carts and the Wordpress blog.  The current theme systems require you to be somewhat familiar with PHP and the CMS architecture.  If you are not very familiar with PHP and/or the CMS, AutoTheme removes the complexity while providing extreme flexibility and power.

AutoTheme's primary benefit is providing users the ability to create themes for their CMS in HTML using their favorite editor, with no use of PHP.  In addition, AutoTheme provides easy customization of every part of your CMS site; including block display, custom templates for the Home Page, User Pages and Admin Pages and individual modules pages.  The addition of AutoBlocks provides unlimited locations for your blocks, beyond Left, Right and Center.  All AutoTheme settings are easily configured from a graphical administration interface that is integrated into the CMS.

AutoTheme Extras are plug-ins that do very nifty things such as, a first visit site entry page, change a theme on a specific date or at specific times of day and search engine optimized URLs.

Many hundreds, if not thousands of themes are available for AutoTheme.  There are quite a few commercial themes, however the vast majority are free.  AutoTheme themes are not CMS specific and are usable on any of the AutoTheme supported platforms.

AutoDigg - Extra 

This AutoTheme Extra when enabled allows you to add an AutoTheme command to your article.html or summary.html or whatever template you are using, even page or block templates that displays a Digg It button. This button displays the number of Diggs for your article and also can be clicked to submit the story to digg.com. This Extra has an admin that allows you to choose the button color and button type (normal, compact or icon).

Use this command in your template: <!-- [digg-this] -->

Block Title Letters - Extra
This Extra when enabled, will automatically include images to use as each letter in your block titles enabling fancing fonts or very graphical letters.

 If a gif, jpg or png image exists for each letter in the block title then it will be used. This is straight forward for all alphanumeric characters, so if you had L.gif, o.gif, g.gif, i.gif and n.gif in your images/ directory then they would be used for the title of the Login block. This operation is case sensitive, so for Login you would need L.gif and not l.gif.

For non-alphanumeric characters you just use the 3 digit decimal ASCII code of that character. For example a space would be 032.gif and a colon : would be 072.gif. These are easily found on the web by searching for "ascii table" or "ascii codes".
