The document provides an overview of theming in Drupal. It discusses:
- Drupal uses a "prepare and push" system where complete web pages are compiled from different sources in themes, unlike WordPress' "pull" system.
- Themes style individual Drupal elements like pages, blocks, and nodes, not the whole page.
- Creating a new theme involves choosing a base theme, creating a sub-theme folder, modifying template and style files, and launching a minimum viable theme.
- Key template files that can be modified include page.tpl.php, node.tpl.php, and block.tpl.php. Variables and content can be rearranged in these files
The document provides an overview of the basic steps for designing a theme for Drupal:
1. Create wireframes and specifications for the theme.
2. Establish a grid, color palette, and design elements using tools like GIMP.
3. Set up a base theme files and use version control.
4. Rebuild pixel-perfect designs in Drupal templates.
5. Theme by user experience rather than by module or specific template files.
The presenter emphasizes designing for individual elements rather than whole pages, provides examples of base themes to build from, and explains how to override styles through template files and variables.
Developing Custom WordPress Themes for ClientsSteven Slack
Should you develop custom themes for clients? When is it necessary? Why should you build custom themes for clients? Things that will be covered in this talk include, starting a theme from scratch, theme boilerplates, working with clients through the process, cost, performance, properly planning theme architecture around clients content, integrating with plugins and custom plugins, presentation vs functionality, updates and maintenance, shipping and installing the theme, training clients, populating site with content, and getting paid!!
WordCamp NEO 2016 presentation "Custom Responsive Theme Workshop" by David Brattoli
While we could use many different frameworks, premium and free themes to build our sites, I have found you need a truly custom framework to build a base to build new themes quickly to meet your project needs. This method to create a framework and then to create a child theme for the look of the site, will allow you build future sites quickly and efficiently. The session will cover why we choose this method and framework, the challenges we faced, how we tackled the challenge, and what we ended up building to solve the problem. I'll also reveal the pitfalls we discovered and how we overcame those as well.

This document provides an overview of theme development in WordPress. It discusses what a theme is and some of the basic theme files like style.css, header.php, and footer.php. It also covers using frameworks to speed up development, making themes responsive using child themes, reasons for creating a custom theme, tips for theme development like testing and validation, and links to additional resources. The presenter has experience with graphic design, web development, and WordPress themes.
Child Themes (WordCamp Dublin 2017) with notesDamien Carbery
Child themes allow users to modify a parent theme without editing its core files. They are easy to create, requiring only a single style.css file specifying the theme name and parent theme directory. This prevents changes from being lost during parent theme updates. Using a child theme, users can change styles, templates, add new features, and override parent theme files. While most themes are designed to work with child themes, some may require additional workarounds if they do not properly support child theme functionality. Overall, child themes provide a simple and effective way to customize an existing WordPress theme.
WordCamp Kent 2019 - WP 101: Local Development - Themes and PluginsJoe Querin
WordPress Multisite allows multiple sites to run under a single WordPress installation. UpDraftPlus and BackWPUp are popular plugins for backing up sites. A child theme allows modifications to an existing theme's files while still receiving updates, whereas a custom theme requires building all files from scratch. Local development tools like WAMP, DesktopServer, and Local by Flywheel allow running WordPress locally with PHP and MySQL. Source code repositories like GitHub and code editors help with development workflow.
The theme of your website has the capacity for beautiful, semantic markup...and also the hacky HTML soup. You can build a new theme by downloading a free theme and tearing out its guts--or you can learn how to become a theme surgeon.
In this session you will learn two key techniques needed to build a successful theme: crime scene investigation (identifying Drupal page elements in your design files) and power tools for copy-cat theming (things you need to recreate your design using Drupal). From start to finish we will transform a design file into a Drupal theme. With special attention given to your all-important questions: how do I save time with grid-based design? Should I use Panels? How do I make this bit of stuff appear next to that bit? Yah, but how do I start?

About The Presenter
Emma Jane Hogbin is well known in the Drupal community for her engaging presentations and kickass theming book, Front End Drupal. She is currently working on her second book, Drupal: A user's guide which is due out shortly after DrupalCon. Through her training company, Design to Theme, emmajane has empowered thousands of people to create the Drupal site of their dreams.
Intended audience
Small business site builders who partner with graphic designers but have no idea how to make Drupal look like a design file. Intermediate themers who start with a free Drupal theme that looks "close" to the final site and then start hacking to make their theme. The audience currently does not use base themes and are frustrated at how complicated all of the code is. They are looking for shortcuts and some quick-fix solutions to make theming faster and more profitable.
Questions answered by this session
What are the key tools I need to use to make themeing Drupal easier?
How can I make Drupal markup less yucky?
Where should I start when building a new theme?
Yeah, but how do I theme *that thing*?
I want to see how you build a theme: show me!

How We Use the Abivia Content Pattern (ACP) Plugin in Joomla Website DevelopmentAlan Langford
These are the slides from my presentation at the Joomla World Conference, held in San Jose in November 2012. Video of presentation is available: Save Time and Money by Using ACP for Joomla Content http://torontojoomla.ca/blog/13-save-time-and-money-by-using-acp-with-joomla-content
A child theme in WordPress allows a theme to inherit functionality from a parent theme while allowing customization without affecting core files when the parent theme is updated. Key benefits include the ability to update the parent theme without affecting the child theme, having a maintainable base theme, and easily experimenting with custom CSS, JavaScript, and other code. Creating a child theme involves making a new folder under wp-content/themes, adding a style.css file that references the parent theme, importing the parent stylesheet, and optionally adding additional files like functions.php and template files.
The document provides instructions for the final project in a web content management systems class. It outlines requirements for creating a WordPress theme including having one sidebar, two widgets, one custom post type, two templates, five content pages, a content page with video, using WordPress menu functionality, and including at least two plugins. It also discusses hosting a WordPress site including recommended hosts, migrating content and databases between sites using plugins, and optimizing site performance. The homework is to select an HTML template for the final project.

WordUp Pompey - 22nd Feb 2018 - GutenbergHerb Miller
A new block editor is being built as a feature plugin for potential inclusion in WordPress 5.0. The product is still very much in development. It appears to favour new installations.The absence of a migration plan for existing content is a major concern to some people, especially developers, who are concerned that many sites will be broken. Is this a risk you're prepared to accept?

AppSec PNW: Android and iOS Application Security with MobSFAjin Abraham
Mobile Security Framework - MobSF is a free and open source automated mobile application security testing environment designed to help security engineers, researchers, developers, and penetration testers to identify security vulnerabilities, malicious behaviours and privacy concerns in mobile applications using static and dynamic analysis. It supports all the popular mobile application binaries and source code formats built for Android and iOS devices. In addition to automated security assessment, it also offers an interactive testing environment to build and execute scenario based test/fuzz cases against the application.
This talk covers:
Using MobSF for static analysis of mobile applications.
Interactive dynamic security assessment of Android and iOS applications.
Solving Mobile app CTF challenges.
Reverse engineering and runtime analysis of Mobile malware.
How to shift left and integrate MobSF/mobsfscan SAST and DAST in your build pipeline.

Fueling AI with Great Data with Airbyte WebinarZilliz
This talk will focus on how to collect data from a variety of sources, leveraging this data for RAG and other GenAI use cases, and finally charting your course to productionalization.
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.
[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...Jason Yip
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation ParametersSafe Software
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
