Zen Task Force

We encourage users to post events happening in the community to the community events group on https://www.drupal.org.

The Zen theme aims to be the ultimate standards-compliant starting theme for Drupal. The name is an homage to the CSS Zen Garden and its aim to completely redefine the look of a site purely through CSS.

This group seeks to solidify the Zen theme to make sure that it is truly pliable, flexible, and adaptable. We will also discuss and implement improvements and future directions for this theme framework and for Drupal theming in general.

You can also find some of us hanging out in the #drupal-design IRC chatroom.

Anyone could help with this issue?

There is an issue for the Support file cache related to the Zen theme here: http://drupal.org/node/234313. It seems that because the Zen theme doesn't have the _phptemplate_page function in the template.php, this might be happening. I found the _phptemplate_page function in the template-subtheme.php file. I tried adding the command they suggested right under it, but I would get errors like: Fatal error: Call to undefined function sf_cache_dispatch(). Can anyone please help solve this issue?

CSS problem

Hi All,

I'm trying to place a 'Search form' in the right side of the header.

Within <div id="header">, <div id="logo-title"> with logo image is floated left. <div id="header-blocks"> with 'Search form' is floated right:

However as you can see from the link below, it is not floated far enough.

http://www2.mpxsys.com.ua

I spent quite some time trying to fix it, but had no success.

Can anybody give me a hint?

P.S. The CSS I use for "logo-title" and "header-blocks":

#logo-title /* Wrapper for logo, website name, and slogan */
{

TheSkinDrop.com

TheSkinDrop.com is a collection of what I deem high quality skins for multiple different devices.

The site is my first Drupal 6 site, and my first Zen Theme.
It is still in Beta, not to be 'web 2.0', but because the nature of Drupal 6 modules at the moment I was forced to use a few Dev modules, and even do a fair bit of porting myself just to get the modules I wanted.
I also wrote two modules specifically for the site, one which was released as a project on Drupal.org (mobile_codes) and another which is site specific.

All feedback is appreciated.

Andrew Livingstone - artist portfolio and blog

Just put this site live today, though I think Andrew needs to put up more content. He has a show on 10 June. Doing this site made me ponder how lovely it is setting up Drupal as CMS... I don't have to wait for a client to send me content- images, text, revisions, etc, they can put it up themselves!

It is an artist portfolio and blog site: http://andrewlivingstone.com/

Zen now available for Drupal 6

Last week, I released Zen 6.x-1.0-beta1 after finally fixing some Drupal core bugs that prevented Zen sub-themes from working the way I felt they should work.

Also, Zen 6.x-1.0-beta2 was released this morning, but just fixes a critical bug for PHP 4 users.

Installation and sub-theme building instructions for Zen 6.x-1.x have also been put in the on-line docs.

Herron School of Art and Design

Herron School of Art and Design There's a lack of sites in our new little Theme Garden tab. Edit: Looks like Craig just put two new sites into the Theme Garden. Excellent!

So I'm adding a site that was built using Zen 5.x-0.8. The site was being developed concurrently with Zen 5.x-1.0, so that's why it used the 0.8 version. I should have two more sites built with 1.0/1.1 for people to see in June.

Anyway, here's the link: http://herron.iupui.edu/

Zen Task Force group

Hey just saw the drupal dojo group - http://groups.drupal.org/drupal-dojo - and it gave me an idea.

How about having some tabs on the top of the group to organize it a bit.

Some thoughts:

  1. discussions
  2. built with zen (sites built with zen to show its flexibility) maybe "theme garden" :)
  3. help section
  4. official updates and news

Just thought I would provoke some thought on this. Any other ideas?
