Announcing Our Latest Video: Theming Basics for Drupal

Article by Kent ByeMay 26, 2009 - 3:28pm

Theming Basics cover We're proud to announce the fourth video in the Lullabot Learning Series. Theming Basics for Drupal covers, as you might guess, all of the basics of Drupal theming. Here's the description:

The Lullabot Learning Series continues with a hands-on look at Drupal's theming system. In this 2 hour and 44 minute long in-depth video guide, Nate Haug, Jeff Robbins, and James Walker explain the steps for translating a web design into a Drupal theme. The video explains Drupal's design vernacular, concepts, and special needs. The team shows how to associate the proper CSS & Javascript files, add all of the necessary regions, and control the HTML output through page and node-specific templates. You'll learn about the best tools and strategies for controling the look and feel of your Drupal website. This video covers the basics of Drupal theming. Drupal's more complex theming topics are covered in the Advanced Theming video (to be released soon) which pairs with this video and finishes the complete implementation of the 960 Robots theme used in both videos.

In this free sample chapter from the video, Jeff Robbins demonstrates the Devel module's Theme Developer tool:

The download version of Theming Basics for Drupal costs $75 is available right now in our store.

Template

Hi,
Please could you please post the original template somewhere? I am a complete theming newbie and would like to work alongside the video.

It's great by the way!

When is the advanced theming video scheduled for?

This video seems great but I was looking to find some video tutorials for preprocess functions etc. Any ideas of when your advanced theming video will be out?

Ps. Why don't you make a package deal for buying multiple videos in your store? Pretty sure it would benefit you as well as your customers. /F

Thanks,
Fridge
