Drupal 5 Themes

Drupal 5 Themes

Publication Date: 
31 December 2007

This book is the ideal introduction to theming with Drupal 5. If you want to create a striking new look for your Drupal website, this book is for you. Starting from the basics of theme setup and configuration, you will learn about the Drupal theming architecture and the PHPTemplate engine, and then move on to modifying existing themes and building new themes from scratch. Included is a complete guide to the various style sheets and themeable functions in Drupal 5, making this book a valuable resource even to experienced theme developers.

Drupal 5 Themes

Packt Publishing today announced the release of my newest title - Drupal 5 Themes.

As the Packt site explains:

Create a new theme for your Drupal website with a clean layout and powerful CSS styling.

  • Learn to create new Drupal 5 Themes
  • No experience of Drupal 5 theming required
  • Set up and configure themes
  • Understand Drupal 5's themeable functions
  • Finding your way around Drupal 5's theming architecture
  • Locating and identifying the various elements, functions, and styles
  • Working with the PHPTemplate templating engine
  • Intercepting and overriding default templates and styles

Expected December 2007. Pre-order now!

I think most Drupal fans will find the book of interest. Not only did we explain step-by-step the key functions, but we also documented all the (20+) style sheets and all the themeable functions. It's our hope that even more experienced Drupal developers will find the resources contained in the book to be useful.

In typical Packt style -- 5% of all profits goes back to the Drupal Foundation.

In case you had been wondering where I had disappeared to these last few weeks/months -- now you know!
