Subsites

Subsites are a part of your website that can have its own menu, theme, custom CSS or anything else you want.

Subsites can be defined in a few manners:
- Marking individual nodes as belonging to the subsite.
- All pages in the subsite menu belong to the section.
- Defining paths that belong to a the section. This is done in the same way block visibility works. So you can use PHP too!

Subsites can have ...
... their own page template : page-subsites-{subsite-id} or page-subsites-{subsite-slug-name}.tpl.php
... their own CSS file
... their own theme, different from the default theme
... their own menu.

Subsites can be ...
... a condition in Context module (http://drupal.org/project/context)
... used to define block visibility

That's all? Nope! Themers and module writers can react differently for each subsite using subsites_get_current and subsites_get.

Remark! Each path/node/... can have only one subsite. If multiple subsites' conditions apply for the path, the subsite with the lowest weight is the active one.

How can you get involved?

Delta Theme Settings API

himerus - November 2, 2009 - 14:09

What is the Delta Theme Settings API?

The Delta Theme Settings API came about after a need for a much altered interface for managing and manipulating theme settings. The first phase of this module will be required when using the Omega base theme in order to manipulate and override theme settings for a variety of factors including node types, contexts, and paths.

Delta by definition: (Greek letters in mathmatics)

  • a finite difference
  • a difference operator
  • a symmetric difference
  • the difference or change in a given variable

More information to follow, including links to references & screenshots of the interface in concept and initial work.

Time block

jerdiggity - November 1, 2009 - 01:49

Creates a block that displays a ticking time clock based on the time set in the user's computer system (that's all).

Comment displays

swentel - October 27, 2009 - 11:45

#D7CX: I pledge that Comment displays will have a full Drupal 7 release on the day that Drupal 7 is released.

Comment displays is part of the Display Suite and is an implementation of its API. It makes it possible to render the comment fields into regions. Another feature is to render the comments in a block instead of the $comments variable in page.tpl.
