An example theme that simply help understanding redturtle.subsites features

Project description

Introduction

This is only an example Plone theme, to be used for testing in a simple way all the redturtle.subsites features.

For a complete list of the features, and for know how to configure properly Apache in front of Plone, refer to the documentation.

This is a silly Sunburst extensions with:

  • a different logo image

  • an additional image in the logo viewlet

  • a custom CSS (that make all more gray)

  • a custom JavaScript (that display “Welcome To The demo”)

  • a customized main_template where the footer has been removed

Example details

Let say that you have a Plone site accessible through http://mycompany.com/ , where you didn’t applied any Plone theme (so probably Sunburst base theme).

This will be your back-end URL.

As you can see, all CMF skins customization (site logo and main_template) are lost.
