Hey,

I have used blocktheme on d5 with great success on other sites, but I'm on a d6 installation and I installed blocktheme and it doesn't seem to be working properly.

I will preface by saying that my theme, AD The morning After, found here: http://drupal.org/project/ad_the-morning-after,
does NOT come with a block.tpl.php file. I used the one from garland and moved it over. I'm wondering if this might be the root of my problem, which I has explained below.

I copy the garland block code into a block.tpl.php file and I have updated it accordingly. Following the mustardseed video, I added a class at the end of the declaration, and then renamed the file blocktheme-classname.tpl.php, and I entered in the machine readable name|Human Name in the blocktheme administration interface. On the block configuration interface the blocktheme menu appears, and I have the option to select my custom block theme, which I do. I save, and everything seems fine. However on the block, no changes occur. I firebug my block and none of the

classes that appear contain my special blocktheme name or any reference to it. It's as if the module wasn't installed or I had never assigned the class to the block.

I then followed this support request:

http://drupal.org/node/279078

and then this:

http://drupal.org/node/283489

and tried it with the new $blocktheme variable, following your instructions, and renaming my blocktheme-customtemplate.tpl.php file to block.tpl.php with the $blocktheme variable, and tried to restep the process.
The same result occurred, there is no trace of my new css class appearing on the block.

I have added my css classes to my stylesheet and uploaded it multiple times with no effect.

I'm stumped. On d5 it works just fine, I don't know why it is not on d6.

Any thoughts?

Many Thanks.

Very sorry gents,

It seems that after a few minutes after clearing the cache, I come back, and the proper changes have appeared. So weird...
