I understand that this theme was designed for Drupal 5 but has anyone had luck with loading this with Drupal 6.1? I added it to my theme folder but it doesn't show up in the themes admin.

Thanks,
Drew

I'm having the same issue. Theme does not show.

did you try placing the 'ad_agency' folder in one of the other theme folders? It's a CSS-only theme, similar to 'Marvin'.

you need to create a file called ad_agency.info in the ad_agency theme folder with the following code

; $Id:
name = Ad Agency
description = This is a fixed width 3 column theme.
version = VERSION
core = 6.x
engine = phptemplate
stylesheets[all][] = style.css

Then you can select it

Geoff

Title: Ad Agency won't load with Drupal 6.1 » Drupal 6 version

I'm in my 1 month of learning Drupal, but I've found a solution for this.

I had two problems:

1. It appears that ad_agency was lacking a .info file, so I created one using notepad with the following bare-bones info -

; $Id: ad_agency.info,v 1.1 2009/05/16 15:39:24 ad_agency Exp $
name = ad_agency

; core version to 6.x despite this theme being 5.x
core = 6.x
engine = phptemplate

2. The second problem after this was a class error in the DOM tag of page.tpl.php, which I changed to this:
print $language->language " xml:lang=" print $language->dir ">

I got ad_agency to work, but alas, it needs a better .info file to utilize all the blocks, etc. I'm still learning this stuff.

Like yourself I am also starting out in drupal, and decided to take a crack at converting the ad_agency theme to 6.x. have it largely working (where I can post it so it's downloadable from the themes section I'd like to know), although I did run into some issues.

I move the links in the top right hand corner to below the main image. Just prefer it that way. For that I can't seem to get that menu centered (stays as if text-align:left is always set)
moved the user login to where the links are in the top right hand corner (think where facebook has theres). The styling is a bit off but it works.
WYISIWIG modules doesn't work at all (see http://drupal.org/node/537634 for details if so inclined) for any text field.

Outside of that works as nice as you please.

I already uploaded a D6 version above in comment #4.

@theneemies - any chance I can become a co-maintainer on this theme?
