Well I'm starting out with drupal and plan to build a theme. The big question is should I create my theme for stable (4.3.2) or use current CVS (4.4.x)? From the comments I've seen around the board, it looks like major changes to the theme system are in CVS and any work I do on a theme in 4.3.x will have to be redone when 4.4.x is released.
I'm using the utility theme from urlgreyhot.com. It's showing up twice in my listing, even though it's only in one directory in the themes directory and there's only one utility.theme file in the /drupal/themes/utility directory.
What could cause it to show up more than once in the listing?
Also, I noticed that no matter what I change in the .theme file, it's not being displayed. This causes me to believe that there is another theme file somewhere, but where else could it be?
I was "auditioning" some themes, and one of them was causing fatal errors bad enough that Drupal would not load. Nothing showed up except a fatal error (at line 179 of theme.inc, with Drupal 4.3.1, if anyone cares)
This leads to a sort of catch-22: I could not load Drupal because of the broken theme. But I could not change the theme because I could not load Drupal. So how can someone recover their site if they've installed a theme that turns out to be broken?
Has anyone had any experience translating themes from other systems? I particularly like Tiki's default SubSilver theme (http://www.opensourcecms.com/tiki/styles/subsilver.css) and the moreneat one. There's some very fine Xoops (& of course the whole PN family) themes as well.
All right, I've been poking this thing (Drupal) with a stick and thought I'd ask for some direction so I can start digging with more focus. In stories and articles, I would like to NOT display the Submitted By line. All the Themes seem to have this as a standard. What do I need to comment out/look for in the themes to exclude this line?
