I think your module sound great but cant get it to work.
I am fairly new to both drupal and css so i may be missing something obvious here.
Here is what I did:
created a copy of block.tpl.php and renamed it to superblock.tpl.php
below are the contents of superblock.tpl.php
<div class = "superblock">
<div id="block-<?php print $block->module .'-'. $block->delta ?>" class="block block-<?php print $block->module ?>">
<?php if ($block->subject): ?><h2><?php print $block->subject ?></h2><?php endif; ?>
<div class="content"><?php print $block->content ?></div>
</div>
</div>i added the following to the bottom of my template.php
function myteam_block($block) {
if (module_exists('blocktheme')) {
if ( $custom_theme = blocktheme_get_theme($block) ) {
return _phptemplate_callback($custom_theme,array('block' => $block));
}
}
return phptemplate_block($block);
}where myteam is the name of my theme.
This is what I added to my style.css
.superblock {
background:red;
}In admin>site config>blocktheme i added the following line
superblock.tpl.php|Superblock
I am able to select the 'superblock theme' for one of my blocks but when i hit submit my block disappears!
I think i have followed all the steps...but it seems to me that i have missed out something crucial.
If someone could point me in the right direction i would really appreciate it.
Thanks

I have inspected my page using FireBug and I have found this :
<!-- begin sidebar-right --><!-- PHPTemplate was instructed to override the superblock.tpl.php theme function, but no valid template file was found. -->

I added the "superblock" literal to my superblock.tpl.php
<div class = "superblock">
<div id="block-<?php print $block->module .'-'. $block->delta ?>" class="block block-<?php print $block->module ?>superblock">
<?php if ($block->subject): ?><h2><?php print $block->subject ?></h2><?php endif; ?>
<div class="content"><?php print $block->content ?></div>
</div>
</div>
Still doesn't work though.

I've got the same problem. Really don't know how to fix it... It just can't find a valid template file...
