Meta Theme

How do I go about submitting a theme. I've been working on one for a few months now and I'm almost finished. I'd like to have this one posted for the 4.7 release. I still have to write the JS for the cookie user-specified theme settings and finishing testing with 4.7 and adding a few extra styles. I've been working with Drupal for about a year now and I would really appreciate some help in how to go about a formal theme submission.

Thoughts feedback welcome.

Q: Where can I edit my breadcrumb?

I was able to tweak my includes/menu.inc file a little bit, but I can't find where I can remove the div tag around it and stuff like that. I also want to remove the "»" characters. Any help would be great.

Thanks

Q: Post 20 recent articles

I want to post like 20 recent articles on my article homepage. I understand that I can do this with the "Popular content" block but I am already using it on another page and would ultimately like to have complete control over this anyway. Does anybody know how I could select the 20 most recent articles from the database and display them as a list or something?

Thanks!

Wanna view my theme so far?

I'm curious what you think of my theme so far. http://osmap.org/pt

It's based off of this mambo theme: http://tema.mambo.gen.tr/index.php?mos_change_template=wds_biznes_a

I wanted the theme to be wider, so I changed that. I had a tough time adding my box shadow effect to the middle column, because I had to add two DIV tags before each block, node, box, etc. Some places I couldn't add the tags, like the "edit" portion of the profile page, even with a custom user_profile.tpl file. Maybe I was just doing something wrong. Anyways, in places I couldn't add those two DIV tags to create the shadow, I made them in the page.tpl.php, and print them only if the q= variable meets certain conditions. I still have more conditions to add, as my middle column shadow box isn't showing up correctly on some pages still, like admin. If anyone knows a more elegant way, feel free to tell me.

I also made a few different color schemes, like orange and green. I think you can see them if you register and go to edit profile. Same thing, just different colors, happier looking.

Do you think it's a good start? I'm keeping it plain for now in case someone else wants to use or is willing to optimize the css and such so it's drupal themes worthy. I will probably add a logo to my site to make it look less cold. Because of the name of the site, it will be a cartoon pigeon like the Animaniacs Goodfeathers, with a city backdrop, something like that...

simple css/float question (or drupal solution?) to hide sidebar when blocks hidden...

Hi All,

i am working on a site for a community group (unpaid) that will mostly be static content with a members only area for latests news (like a blog), so want no blocks visible on most pages/most of the time (i have seperate navigation). i am a little stuck with this!

I know i can turn off blocks on certain pages and will be doing this - what i want is to have the second column (side bar) in my two column layout not be visible at all when the blocks are hidden/turned off (i.e. on these essentially static pages).

Specifically i want the site to be one column except for say the admin, user/login and add content pages.

I could make the static pages outside of drupal to over come this and have a part drupal site, though i want the option of authenticated members to be able to edit this essentially static content within drupal rather than source code/html - so they can 'own' the site and not rely on me or another coder to add/modify content.

Drupal 4.7 may (i have only word of mouth knowledge of the regions property) overcome this, or i could put the blocks at the top/bottom of the main content, tho would prefer to have them selctively in a sidebar and then the main column fill out the page (i.e. expand to 100% page width) when the blocks are hidden.

I am certain the solution is a simple css thing, though cannot think how to do it... or is there something in drupal?
