Sub-themes are one of the most important tools a Drupal themer can have in their arsenal. Do you create a new theme from scratch for every project? Do you sometimes just copy a theme and then spend hours removing unnecessary code or fine tuning it to fit the new design? Stop wasting time and losing money. Use sub-themes, all the cool kids are doing it! Understanding how to leverage sub-themes allows a Drupal themer to deliver more to their client in less time. It will also allow for more precise control when working in multi-site environments. In this session we will discuss:
basic theme structure
how to create a sub-theme
sub-theme inheritance
the power of sub-themes in multi-sites
Psst! you can get away with not understanding themes for this session ... but an intro to theming session first wouldn't hurt. Carl Wiedemann has what looks to be a good one.
