Creating Theme

Why is there a php and css file required for a theme?

Do they have overlapping values? I know I made a theme ages ago (and have never changed it), but don't really remember what I did. Because it was literally almost 8 years ago. Wow :p

Re: Creating Theme

You actually only need the CSS file.

What happens is that the PHP file is a template which creates a CSS file.  The CSS file is then used by the oekaki.  If you know how to code in PHP, it makes sorting out the colors a bit easier, but you don't actually need it.

The template system is actually the most antiquated part of the oekaki at this point.  I haven't updated it, since it would render all existing templates incompatible with little benefit in the long run.

Re: Creating Theme

The best thing to do is to install the board and get it running, then make a copy of one of the CSS files in the templates folder.  Then delete the PHP version of the template.  Make the changes you want to the CSS file and try it out.

Be sure to keep a backup!  If you don't delete the PHP file, it's possible that the oekaki will try to rebuild the template and it will overwrite your new CSS file.

Back up the previous thread the CSS but at the time of upload to templates, I do not get on the list to select.
In another rare case, I spent that if he went without PHP CSS if I caught him, but I failed on author, and data from changing workforce.

Thank you very much once again

Re: Creating Theme

Sorry, I forgot that if you don't have a PHP version of the template, your template will not show up in the CPanel or Edit Profile.  sad

Making a custom template can be difficult if you don't know how to use PHP.
