Block Rendering Difference From Theme Templates - master.htm/home.htm  Bottom

  • I am working on my first theme for .8 and have noticed a block rendering difference between and master.htm/home.htm.

    In the screen shots below you can see the block rendering followed by the portion of the source call related.

    The first set are the master.htm & defult block.htm within my theme templates - where the master.htm calls the default block.htm and renders how I want it too

    In this second set I have set a template for the home page (which in it's current state is identical to the master template - However the way the block is called it is ignoring the default block.htm from my theme and rendering the block... (based on what?)

    In the second example the call for the block colapse button has no id for just one difference. You can see the second example is missing the the block template calls.

    Am I missing something altogether? Is this a feature/bug?

  • Hey Paul.
    Check the templates that you have in the /templates/blocks subfolder...
    You should update all the templates there,
    and also you can check which template is used for left-blocks (?)
    in the home.ini config file to see if any special template is used.

    I recommend you to take a look to the BlankTheme project:
    http://trac.postnuke.com/blanktheme
    We're writing some docs before release it icon_wink

  • This theme started life, as a generated theme, out of the theme Module. I have yet to try the blank theme module.

    "check which template is used for left-blocks (?)
    in the home.ini config file "

    How did I miss that? It must have been late, Thanks Mateo. Problem Solved. I reset the block position settings for the home.ini and it is good.

  • Nice Paul.
    Take in account that BlankTheme is not a module, it's a ready-made Theme with some stuff included, with YAML CSS Framework support and ready to be customized to your needs through clean CSS and a flexible layout configuration.

    Docs included in our Trac project has a brief introduction of how it works. icon_wink
