Template for Modern AAC

[Ecstacy]

Hello,

I'm wondering how I would make a template for Modern AAC.

I'm used to making templates for HTML, but now I want to get into making my own templates for Modern AAC(PHP).

The thing I want to know is where do I actually form the template, etc.. since I'm using Adobe Dreamweaver and it doesn't have any design when I use 'index.tpl'.

Also I would like to know how I would code buttons, etc..

Thanks in advance,

Hmm Its very simple the same as all php sites ( gesior templates ) but the layout file is called index.tpl

im writing a guide..


atm i wrote..

1. Templates​

* About templates

Our template files are stored in (\templates). The main file is (index.tpl)

You can open it with Notepad ++. Mainly the schema of the files is like all other websites. You can use HTML, and PHP ( but you will have to import a file if you want a SQL query ). This tutorial will be based on the default template.

* Head section

1. Including Css and js files​

For importing the Cascading Style Sheets (.css) file we can use this tag

<link rel="stylesheet" href="{$path}/templates/default/images/Refresh.css" type="text/css" />

Where {$path} stands for the location of the Modern AAC directory.

To get a style sheets write in the href="" form {$path}/templates/TEMPLATE-NAME/name.css

For importing javascript (.js) files we can use this tag

<link href="{$path}/templates/default/js.js" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet">

To get a style sheets write in the href="" form {$path}/templates/default/file.js


If you want display the content use {$main} in gesior was <?PHP $main_content; ?>

Hmm what else?

{$admin} - [Administration Link] visible only for page access X+

Menu :

<a href="{$path}/index.php/account/create">Text</a>

{$head} - import all files .css/.js from PUBLIC folder (main directory)


I will write all later in a tutorial but you can spread me rep

 

[Ecstacy]

Is the '*headpart' for '.html' or for '.tpl'?

And how would the layout get larger when I i.e. post a news message?

Its all for the .tpl

this all is to the tpl file its html + php mix

 

[Ecstacy]

How would I make a '.tpl' file?
Because I can't really work without seeing the design :s.

 

[Kavvson]

Hmm.. You can work for now as a normal HTML file.. Create the layout .. later you can rename the .html to .tpl and add the required lines {$values}

i can help you.. So basically create a blank html template and i will code it. or help you to do it

 

[Ecstacy]

thanks alot
I'll send you a PM with the blank template once it's done.

And in the 'navbar' I don't have to add text or something right?

 

[Kavvson]

what nav part? the from default template or witch?

 

[Ecstacy]
