For example, the default header template (header.tpl) can be replaced by a customised header template (my-header.tpl). After submitting the changes to the database the gallery will display the customised header instead of the original header.<br> -Template extensions are a powerful way to create customised themes for both new and advanced users. Used together with the LocalFiles Editor you can create your own child themes.</p> - -<h3>Original Template</h3> -<p>A theme contains a number of template files that make up the gallery pages. These are the original templates.</p> - -<h3>Optional URL Keyword</h3> -<p>These are words found in the gallery URL after the module name. They can also be active permalinks (See the permalink documentation for more information). <a href="#warnings">WARNING:</a> if the same original template and same keyword is used on more than one customised template only the last one is active.</p> - -<h3>Bound Theme</h3> -<p>The bound theme is the theme from which the template files are being replaced.</p> - -<h3>Where are the original templates?</h3> -<p>Original templates are the template files shipped with each theme. These are saved in <em>/themes/default/template</em> (or <em>themes/<theme name>/template</em>). These template files should not be edited in place as changes will be lost with theme upgrades.<br> -Supported original templates include:</p> -<ul> - <li><span class="filename">index.tpl</span></li> - <li><span class="filename">mainpage_categories.tpl</span> and/or <span class="filename">thumbnails.tpl</span></li> - <li><span class="filename">menubar.tpl</span></li> - <li><span class="filename">header.tpl</span> and/or <span class="filename">footer.tpl</span></li> - <li><span class="filename">picture_content.tpl</span> and/or <span class="filename">picture.tpl</span></li> - <!-- <li><span class="filename">slideshow.tpl</span></li> --> - <li><span class="filename">profile.tpl</span> and/or <span class="filename">profile_content.tpl</span></li> - <li><span class="filename">tags.tpl</span></li> - <li><span class="filename">upload.tpl</span></li> - <li><span class="filename">about.tpl</span></li> - <li><span class="filename">popuphelp.tpl</span></li> - <li><span class="filename">search.tpl</span> and/or <span class="filename">search_rules.tpl</span></li> - <li><span class="filename">nbm.tpl</span> and/or <span class="filename">notification.tpl</span></li> - <li><span class="filename">identification.tpl</span> and/or <span class="filename">register.tpl</span></li> - <li><span class="filename">redirect.tpl</span></li> -</ul> -<h3>Saving customised templates</h3> -<p>Customised templates should be saved in the template-extension folder or subfolders. For example, <em>/template-extension/my-default/header.tpl</em> (or <em>/template-extension/<my-theme-name>/header.tpl</em>) Template files can have any name with a .tpl extension. The template files in subfolders appear in the Template configuration screen as available custom templates.</p> -<h3>Activating customised templates</h3> -<p>Select the original template to replace. Optionally choose a URL keyword to ensure that the customised template is only shown on pages with that keyword. Select a bound theme and the changes will be effective on that theme. Submit the changes to the database.</p> -<h3>Deactivating customised templates</h3> -<p>Unselect the original template and submit the changes to the database.<br> -Delete the customised template files from the template-extension folder.</p> - -<a name="warnings"></a> -<h3>Warnings</h3> -<ul> - <li><strong>The original template</strong> must be the original template otherwise you may have unpredictable results.</li> - <li>If the same original template and same URL keyword is used on more than one customised template only the last one is active.</li> - <li>Distributed sample template files are for test purposes only. Do not edit them. Create your own ones or copy existing theme template files into <em>/template-extension/<my-theme>/</em></li> - <li>When the customised template is deleted the original template file is immediately reactivated.</li> -</ul>
