Modify theme to run on 11.x

Hi All.

I am running the grass stain theme on my wesite ( 1.9.1). My test server when upgraded to 11.x, breaks the menus. They simple are not visible on the site.
I have tried the warning on themes on 11.x and changing the Stylesheet to cms_style sheet. This did not help.

My sytem is
Running on Apache version 2.2.24
PHP version 5.3.22
MySQL version 5.5.25-cll
Architecture x86_64
Operating system linux

I do not think the theme is written in the way themes are design in cmsms. ( i do not understsnd the termminogoly so please forgive me).

So i would like to keep the theme and would also like to change layout so it looks landscape as opposed to portrait http://www.selfsustain.com.au..

So need advice on how best to do this, and if it is complicated.


Cheers

the horizontal menu at the top of tyhe page works fine.

to widen the template, you have to edit the stylesheet and increase the width of the wrapper, header, ...

Remove spaces from the name of the used menu. So e.g. simple_horizontal instead of simple horizontal

Replacing {stylesheet} with {cms_stylesheet} and clearing the websitecache should fix the problem. Also refresh the page in your browser with Ctrl F5

Did you also apply the changes of the path

Code: Select all

Open style sheets and change image calls:
 old url(uploads/folder/image.jpg)
 new url([[root_url]]/uploads/folder/image.jpg)
