Release Notes

Tested with Plone 2.1.2, Plone 2.1.1, Plone 2.1
State Final release
License GPL
Release Manager davconvent

The product now uses (a light version of) the skin that you can see on plone.net as its working example.

This new skin design is what you get after walking all the way thru Alexander Limi's (soon to be published) step by step tutorial called Putting a new look on Plone: a real-world example.

This new tutorial is the extension of Alex's presentation at the second New Orleans Plone Symposium in march 2006 (from which you can watch the video).

Change log

  • Bumped version numbering to match Plone version numbering for the first two elements (ie. DIYPloneStyle 2.1.x can be used on Plone 2.1.y). This is to make it easier to figure out which version of DIYPS to use if Plone changes later (I customize main_template lightly in the example and the tutorial). [limi]
  • Added Plone.NET skin as example skin to complement the upcoming tutorial. [limi]
  • Made the default install disable the base, public, portlets, generated CSS files. [limi]
  • Bug fix: customizations on css and js resources made at install are reverted at uninstall. [davconvent]
  • Removed the docs/ folder as it is difficult to keep it in sync with the on-line documentation (on-line doc is usually updated after a product release). [davconvent]
  • Splat resources in the skins folders into categories (images, templates and styles) so we have the product layout match limi's tutorial. [davconvent]
