and 'Sun':

To change between 'Sun' and 'Rain' views - go to ZMI -> portal_skins, open 'Properties' tab. In 'Default skin' area change qThemeRain for qThemeSun or vice versa.

  • SunRain theme has Quills Plone product integrated. Blog view and blogs listing view were changed.
  • Theme comes with Portlet Culumus Plone product, that allows adding Tag Cloud.
  • SunRain theme has 'subscribe' viewlet integrated, that adds two actions 'Send this' and 'RSS.
  • Static Stylish portlet product that is included into the theme allows to change default static portlet view. Two example portlet styles are included: 'Green Item' and 'Grey Item'.
  • SunRain Theme uses customizable slogan. To change portal slogan go to ZMI, open 'Properties' tab and type in your new slogan into 'description' field. Save changes.
  • Logo. Default logotype dimensions - 188px width and 78px height. In case your logo height is bigger than the default one - portal-header area will be extended according to your logo height. So, to make theme header look appropriately - customize 'bg-header.jpg' image, i.e. replace it with an image of the same height as your logo. If your logo is smaller than the default one - it will be placed in the middle of logotype area.
  • Search Box. New approach to site search display is implemented in this theme. In particular, searchSection is hidden during common page view. Simply hover the cursor to the search box area and the searchSection appears.
