Footheme comes with two "responsive"-stylesheets: footheme.responsive.style.css and footheme.responsive.gpanels.css.

While footheme.responsive.style.css is the same as in the corolla-theme, footheme.responsive.gpanels.css is a little bit different. Seems that ie-support is missing.

Now I wonder what is best practice to handle these files when using the footheme as a substheme of Pixture Releoaded:

  • Copy the responsive.style.css and the responsive.gpanels.css from Pixture Reloaded into the Footheme and change them to match the requirements of the new subtheme?
  • Copy the files from Pixture Reloaded into the Footheme, leave them unchanged and make changes in the footheme.css?
  • Empty the footheme.responsive.style.css and footheme.responsive.gpanels.css and use them to override the corresponding files of Pixture Reloaded?
  • or is there another, better option?

Version: 7.x-2.0 » 7.x-3.0-rc1

I have a similar question, though on the 3.0 branch, which doesn't seem to have any of its own responsive CSS files.

I'm using Footheme to subtheme Sky on the AT 3.x branch. I'd like my subtheme to inherit the responsive CSS from Sky, but it's not. I haven't dug into why yet, but is this as designed? What is the best practice here?

Thanks!

I had the same problem. I'm using Adaptive theme 3.x, Sky 3.x and Footheme 3.x. This solultion worked for me. I copied the following files from the sky/css folder into mytheme/css

responsive.custom
responsive.desktop
responsive.smartphone.landscape
responsive.smartphone.portrait
responsive.tablet.landscape
responsive.tablet.portrait

#3 would be the right move, I will look into why these are not in footheme to begin with, could be a bug.

earlier using omega, just last night decided to use adaptivetheme bcoz of its support for panels, now found quite some issues with footheme which was supposedly meant for easing subtheming, namely unmatched regions with corolla and now here, also the readme included was sometimes unmatched with the version used, I'm using 3.x but still mentioning 2.x, same to online docs, I thought standard naming convention for global.styles.css & global.base.css or all come with prefix global, ended up not across different themes.

jetwong98 - well, easy sub theming is one of the goals, not as easy as you might think - sub-theming a colorable theme with these options (from scratch) is hard, so I made this to try and help out a few people, hey, I even wrote some docs for it. Wasn't that nice of me.

I will remind you this is Open Source, your patches are welcome, you know, its US not THEM who build this stuff. Right? So since you found some issues why not get off your soapbox and write a patch - do something that would actually benefit someone else and yourself - are you familiar with that concept?
