Session: Advanced Design for Drupal
Instructor: Emma Jane Hogbin
Training Track: Drupal Core CMS
Audience: Content Creators, Businesspeople & Developers
Advanced Layout Techniques: So you think you know Drupal theming? Are you ready for advanced layout modules? If you said "hells, yes!" you're ready to take a trip down the rabbit hole of Fusion, Skinr and the Panels modules.
In this session you'll learn how to:
- Install and configure advanced layout modules and themes.
- Create sub-regions within your Drupal theme.
- Display context-sensitive content WITHOUT needing complicated PHP hacks and tricks.
- Break just about every single rule you thought you knew about designing for Drupal.
If you've been itching for more control and less PHP in your Drupal themes, this talk is a must-see. WARNING: this talk will blow apart everything you thought you knew about theming Drupal.
Prerequisite: This is for Intermediate Drupal Users. For beginners or those evaluating Drupal for the first time, we highly recommend attending the Drupal KickStart Program on Monday, May 3rd. For best results, we also recommend attending Basic Design for Drupal on May 4, 2:30-4:00, prior to attending Advanced Design for Drupal.
