I'm using footheme to sub-theme at_biz. The result is that many of the regions, such as the three subfeature panels all appear stacked in the left sidebar area. It's as if the page.tpl.php file isn't being picked up from at_biz. The fonts appear okay however.

One item in the README that could be clarified:
Step 2: add something that says to change the base_theme setting to something like: base theme = at_biz. Is this right?

Screenshot is attached. Thanks for your help

The screenshot tells me basically nothing I'm afraid, all I see is a "three column layout with some blocks".

You'd have to put this online.

There is a lot of broken markup in your page, probably coming from some of the blocks.

Please open a support ticket on adaptivethemes.com so we can deal with this privately, I can help you fix this but I will need access to the sites files and as the sites administrator.

Jeff -

Here is a near pristine install of D7 with footheme plus changes as instructed in the README. http://gippy.org
Same results. So I don't think it's broken HTML. A zip of this theme is attached. I would very much appreciate it if you would look to see if I've configured it correctly.

Thanks,

Mark

What do you mean "same result"? I do not follow what you mean by this - what is it supposed to be the same as? I mean what are you expecting. Please answer this, because I am not really following anything in this issue - as in what are you expecting to see?

You said:

The result is that many of the regions, such as the three subfeature panels all appear stacked in the left sidebar area.

But not once on visiting your site, in any browser, have I seen anything like this.

Also, what browser are you using? If you are using IE8, then yes, its going to broken, IE does not handle broken markup as gracefully as Firefox or Chrome.

In the gippy.org site I see a normal layout, although the sub-theme has the wrong color files, looks like you did not copy over AT Biz color files and its using the original Footheme color files (which are from Corolla).

That markup is broken - see the screenshots for truthunity.net. See that red stuff in the markup screenshot, thats Firefox telling me you have broken markup in the block. IE is very angry about this and not playing along well at all, Firefox and Chrome are making a fist of it and doing their best.
