Getting Started with Blueprint
- Download the Blueprint theme, and put it in sites/all/themes/
- Go to http://www.blueprintcss.org and download that zip and open it. Rename that folder "blueprint" and put it inside sites/all/themes/blueprint/
- Add custom css to sites/all/themes/blueprint/css/style.css.
Voila, you have a starter theme.
The Grid
Add the class "showgrid" to divs to see the grid. You can add these classes in firebug to get a quick look.
Tip:Read the README file.
Creating a Blueprint Sub-theme
- Install the Blueprint theme and enable it to be sure it is working
- Create a new folder for your subtheme: "/sites/default/themes/my_theme"
- Create a .info file for your subtheme at "/sites/default/themes/my_theme/my_theme.info" which looks like this:
name = My Blueprint Subtheme
description = My description
core = 6.x
base theme = blueprint
