I have designed a site in drupal with Acquia Slate theme. In this theme there are different page view style for the frontpage and the remaining pages. I know it is possible to make all the pages have the same appearance as the front page but just can't figure out how? Could anyone of you help me solve my problem? I would be eternally grateful.

thanks,

1. Delete page.tpl.php
2. Rename page-front.tpl.php to page.tpl.php
3. Edit block.tpl.php by removing $is_front AND from the if statement of the template file so that it is just <?php if ($rounded_block): ?> - NOTE: this if statement is in two places w/in block.tpl.php - one near the top and one near the bottom.
4. Remove (or comment out) lines 583 - 586 of style.css:

body.layout-first-main #content {
  border-left: 1px solid #444444;
  padding: 30px 0 30px 60px;
}

5. Remove (or comment out) lines 895 - 898 of style.css:

/* block not-front */
body.not-front .block-wrapper {
  margin-bottom: 40px;
}

6. Clear cached data under Admin > Performance
7. Commence eternal gratitude

If one is using a subtheme and does not want to delete the page.tpl.php file because it is SVN how would they go about making it so the page-front.tpl.php is not being pulled in?

Did anyone solve the difference in styling between front page and other pages?

You can change the difference in the block spacings via this:

http://drupal.org/node/532778

Most of the other styles can be altered by grabbing out sections of style.css and altering them and saving them into local.css?

Considered closed??

Adopted the style from the front page blocks and used them for non-front page blocks.

Actually it would be useful to subtheme Acquia slate to a single page template theme, and avoid double styling in the first place.

Can be considered closed.

Thank you

I tried this, twice,was so hopefully, seemed so logical - but I got nothing. Formatting all stayed just as it was before.
Any other ideas or ways around this???
Thanks so much
