Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.
Some findings:
- The screenshot could be nicer emphasizing the LESS zen ness
- All README.txt are zen theme based I guess but they should explain your theme right? How do I get started?
-- css/README.txt ... this should explain what to do with the .less files right?
-- Your README.txt is a clone of the zen starters kit but it should explain your theme.
(stock response)
The README.txt explains in plain English the purpose of the project. This is not required but helps the users to make better decisions.
Please fix the reported issues. Don't forget to set status to needs review after committed to your sandbox project.
impressed so far. I have been trying to integrate less into my own working base theme (a mashup of framework and 960 themes, plus extras). and with the paucity of documentation on the less module, this has helped me enormously with understanding how to set things up properly - particularly the .info side of things - so thanks!. One thing I wondered.. less module recommends naming files filename.css.less - but you don't - is this just because you don't need RTL support?

clemens.tolboomI just installed/enabled your theme but need a readme to know what to do :(
The /admin page is strange laid out.
I expect all .less files to have less styled css ... or am I wrong?
Don't get me wrong ... I both like zen and less so am curious about how this project works for me :)

clemens.tolboomIt seems the developer is not active on this anymore?

szantog commentedSorry, I haven't too much time to make all your instructions, i made some other reorganization, and will be pushed within some weeks.
The first is, calling it "base theme" is wrong, because of less syntax, can't inherit, and make drupalish overrides.
The second, i started rewrite all of README, and other help text, I do it slow..
