Hello,

I would like to start Russian support site for CMS Made Simple. This site, http://www.cmsmadesimple.es/ and http://www.cmsmadesimple.hu/ use the same theme and I would like to use this theme also. Can I download the theme somewhere? Is there any restriction for usage of this theme?

Thanks,
Sonya

Hi Sonya!

The official theme for CMS Made Simple is GPL
(the author should be mentioned in the code and in the footer like we do.)

I have tried to give out the theme to the other "language sites" but we had to do it piece by piece because the theme like its used now on the mainsite have many GCB and UDT's to make it integrate with all the other subdomains we use.
(And unfortunately no one of us have got time to do a clean theme of it and export to the theme site.)

If you can contact us in the chatroom we will help you to get that you need to get started with the theme...

Will be considered.

Generally I am able to create theme from the frontend just by copying html, images and css, cleaning it and putting placeholder where the content, menu and other stuff should be. I've already "transferred" themes this way from static layout severeal times. I am writing modules and UDT for CMSMS and therefore I am able to extend functionality myself.

Yes, it will be easier to get a kind of the StartUp Kit including images, css and templates. I am not a "chatter" but I'll see if I manage to overcome my unease

Theme on this site: Dropdown-menu for top navigation does not work in IE6. Is it a known bug?

I have a solution for the IE bug on this site + displaying more than two levels in horizontal menu. If you would like to test it I would appreciate a feedback

HTML:

Code:

{* Start Navigation *}
<div id="menu_vert">
<h2 class="accessibility">Navigation</h2>
{menu template='cssmenu.tpl'}
<div class="clearb"></div>
<hr class="accessibility" />
</div>
{* End Navigation *}

CSS:

Code:

/* Horizontal menu for the CMS CSS Menu Module */
/* by Alexander Endresen */

#menu_vert {
   margin-left: 1px;
   margin-right: 1px;
}

/* The wrapper clears the floating elements of the menu */

/* Fix for Opera 8 */
.clearb { clear: both; }
#menuwrapper {
   /* Fix for Opera 8 */
   /*   overflow: hidden;  */
   background: #2e72b8 url(images/nav-bg.gif) left repeat-x;   
   width: 100%;
}
