style date in blog post like calendar

Patsjoelie - June 10, 2009 - 18:14

Hi all ...
Is it me just not using the correct English terms in my search or what, but I can't find any guidelines so i could learn how to style my "posted" dates on my drupal blog like a calendar.
Have a look at http://11heavens.com/ for an example.
I see lots of WP themes have this, but I can't find any Drupal themes I can have a look at.

Any pointers, guidelines, tutorials??
Many thanks in advance for any help on this!
Have a great day,
Pat.

clean theme is a good start

luco - June 19, 2009 - 20:00

check it out: http://drupal.org/project/clean

I don't know how that theme's author pulled it off, though.

I've just sent him a message, because I need to apply his fancy date on *another* theme. anyways, I'll study the code, see what can I come up with.

cheers,
Luciano

zen subtheme

luco - June 23, 2009 - 02:37

hey again,

I've just finished a Zen subtheme which features calendar style dates and an optional sticky footer like the one found here: http://www.cssstickyfooter.com

it's based in Zen (http://drupal.org/project/zen) so it's very much customisable. you're also advised to use the Zenophile module (http://drupal.org/project/zenophile) so you'll be able to duplicate it with a name, description etc of your own.

I can't attach files here, so if you'd like to try it just let me know. you can email me and I'll send you the subtheme.

the calendar style dates are based on Richard Burford's excellent Clean Theme (http://drupal.org/project/clean) so remember to thank him ;)

cheers,
Luciano

Delicious Fruit

gtlackey - June 28, 2009 - 20:13

I am trying to do the same thing, however I would like to use the style of calendar icom used on the Delicious fruit theme. It looks better to me than the 11heavan. can anyone help on how to do this in another theme, say the salamander themes?
can I just find the code in the delicious fruit and try to copy it into the salamander theme?

Got it in now need to exclude

gtlackey - August 6, 2009 - 02:00

We were able to get this into the salamander theme on the node level, but now it is showing on all node views. can someone help me with the snippet to exclude it from certain content types?
I believe it will be an if then, but not sure how to write it
