Hello maintainers,

The bluecheese theme (aka the theme you love on drupal.org and have been dying to get on groups.drupal.org) is now available for you to select in your profile. Got to your profile click the edit, scroll down, choose bluecheese, and poke around the site.

There's already a few things that need changing. See these issues first:

What to do if you find a problem

If you find a problem...

  • Small things can be left as comments here (enable this block, disable that setting)
  • If it requires code, send it to an issue queue
    • Bluecheese issue queue for theme problems
    • groupsdrupalorg for something specific to this site that needs to be fixed in a module on this site

Thanks to lots of folks for their help on this, but especially drumm.

Favicon

  1. The favicon is the default Drupal one.

  2. In the sidebar, for the newly approved groups it says "Working and regional Groups & Meetups" instead of indicating they're they newest groups. Not sure if this is intentional.

Favicon I copied from

Favicon I copied from drupal.org.

If it seems wrong could someone post the link to what they think the favicon should be?

PS: the block is now called "new groups" - not sure what happened to it.

One thing I've noticed is that we no longer see any indication of which groups a post is in: the breadcrumb is gone and the hook_links seem to be getting stripped or something.

Favicon - I liked the green globe one used with Bluecheesebeach - different enough to find it in my over-active tab bar.

Seems New Groups was fixed, and I now see the group name in the sidebar.

no site specitic logo (yet?)

Looks like there is no groups logo used yet? (https://skitch.com/gabor.hojtsy/g435b/drupal-8-initiatives-drupal-groups). Otherwise it looks much better :) Even the comment threads look great with all the profile photos :) Like http://groups.drupal.org/node/203523#comments

Yes, no logo yet. We are

Yes, no logo yet. We are waiting for it over here: http://groups.drupal.org/node/145354#comment-670278

footer links

silverwing's picture

Bluecheese is missing links to http://groups.drupal.org/about and http://groups.drupal.org/contact

(Not sure if this would be added to the footer or header or ???)

Nested lists

rcross's picture

Noticed that nested lists don't seem to be displayed well.

You can see a good example of this on http://groups.drupal.org/australia in the sidebar where there is a taxonomy listing with nested terms - in this case used to represent hierarchical locations.

Would love to see 50px taken

Would love to see 50px taken off the right sidebar and put into the content area
Just my 2 cents

Theme issues belong at

greggles's picture

Theme issues belong at http://drupal.org/node/add/project-issue/bluecheese

This is really a design issue which, while I suggest you do post, is likely to be "won't fixed."

Looks like we won't have much

Looks like we won't have much control over the layout of the starting page on groups :( That is sad. I miss the full screen space. Groups like "LA Drupal" look kind of crazy with two very narrow columns.
http://groups.drupal.org/la

The bluecheese theme works fine otherwise though.

Is this an issue? Or is the design no longer going to accomodate "headers" on groups?

Bringing Bluecheese to g.d.o

tvn's picture

Bringing Bluecheese to g.d.o is still in progress
(http://drupal.org/node/969940, http://drupal.org/node/1074224)
so hopefully biggest part of issues will be fixed.

"Headers" issue for sure, take a look at http://bluecheese-groups.redesign.devdrupal.org/ireland

Group organizers can disable

greggles's picture

Group organizers can disable blocks on their homepage by going to

http://groups.drupal.org/node/3002/og_panels -> "Edit page" -> "Show blocks"

They can add their mission as custom panels content as a "header" for the group.

If you have ideas how to make the content area for panels work while keeping the blocks on the right that's certainly a possibility. Just takes wireframe+css.
