Hello Drupallers,

I have outputted a first draft of Drupal 7 phptemplate cheatsheet.
It still needs review from all of us so we can reach a fine one that can be useful for every drupaller.

Download it from here
Review, comment and advise so we can publish an effective one.

Thanks

Great idea!

Maybe we should inluclude more general rules in it, e.g. I had troubles with printing custom menu. Here is more or less code from default tpl files, which are in general easy to find.

I think the link got mixed up a bit. I found it at: http://batayneh.me/sites/default/files/Drupal7-theming-cheatsheet_1.pdf

Hope that helps.

It looks good on my initial view of it. However, it would be nice to have a version number or release date on the page, so that if we see another version online, we can compare date stamps to know which is more current and/or related to the drupal revision we are using.

There is no $highlight variable... as I pointed out in the other thread you are using to promote this cheatsheet.

I love it. Thanks for this great resource.

I did find an error and a typo.

To theme a custom page by Node ID you need to add 2 dashes before the ID. This seems to apply to anything theme file that contains a 3rd level specifier.
page--node-260.tpl.php (wrong)
page--node--260.tpl.php (correct)

I found the correct naming method mentioned here http://drupal.org/node/1089656

Also, a typo for your page.tpl.php example. You have a comma rather than a dot.
page,tpl.php

Very nice, thanks!
Underneath html.tpl.php code, in the 1st row on the left, should '$header' be 'head'?

You didn't address the search box. I am having an awful time moving the PHP code for the search box in my page template. I keep getting an undefined variable error.

I've carefully followed the tutorials and Readme's. I'm trying to make a Zen sub-theme using STARTERKIT. I did the name changes, etc, but when I clear caches, I get the error:
Notice: Undefined index: name in block_menu() (line 146 of /home/sbjazz/public_html/modules/block/block.module).
Notice: Undefined index: name in block_menu() (line 165 of /home/sbjazz/public_html/modules/block/block.module).
Notice: Undefined index: name in system_menu() (line 647 of /home/sbjazz/public_html/modules/system/system.module).

Status message

When I go to the appearance page, I get:

Somehow, the theme name isn't getting recognized, but I've done all the settings I can find.
Help! It's frustrating!

First of all, thanks a lot, its a great cheatsheet!
Second, I am a little new with Drupal 7. But I am working on a theme (AT Commerce to be exact), and I noticed that it has a $content_attributes variable, but I don't see this on your cheatsheet. Is this a standard variable? What exactly is it?

All the links pointing to the cheatsheet are broken, is there a working linking for it.

P.S: I think it should be stored some where on the cloud to avoid hosting issues and extend the projects live.
