Now that we have seen how basic theming is accomplished, we'll take a closer look at how we can adjust the look and feel of a home page view. This can be accomplished in a variety of ways, some of which involve simple CSS and others which require more knowledge of page templating and Python code. We'll also look at sectional styling and wrap up our theme's development with some browser testing.
The Guria theme product ships with a few different examples of how you could modify your home page layout. It is important to note that not all of the CSS has been written to support all of these different views. The intention for final implementation was to use the homepage_view
method (not homepage2_view
), and styling for the former's look and feel is completely in place. The homepage2_view
styling is only partially complete. Look in the theme product's guria_templates
folder to see these two templates.
