- SunRain Theme can be presented in two different views: 'Rain' - defined as a default view:
and 'Sun':
To change between 'Sun' and 'Rain' views - go to 'Site Setup' -> 'Diazo theme' settings, open 'Advanced settings' tab. In 'Parameter expressions' field change theme = string:rain for theme = string:sun or vice versa.
Top image. SunRain diazo theme has replaceable header image for front and inner site pages. To replace default image - upload image with topimage shortname into site root or any site section. Recommended image size: 1000*104px.
SunRain theme has 'subscribe' viewlet integrated, that adds 4 actions 'Share on Twitter', 'Share on Facebook', 'Send this' and 'Subscribe to RSS'. Their links can be edited via ZMI portal_actions -> subscribe.
Icons can be edited via file system at /src/quintagroup.theme.sunrain/quintagroup/theme/sunrain/static/images folder: replace twitter.png, facebook.png, rss.png and email.png icons with new ones. Restart instance.
Slogan. SunRain Theme uses customizable slogan. To change it, go to 'Site Setup' -> 'Diazo theme' settings, open 'Advanced settings' tab. In 'Parameter expressions' field change 'Type your slogan here' slogan in slogan = context/slogan | string: Type your slogan here line.
Logo. SunRain diazo Theme uses default Plone 4 logo. To replace it - in ZMI customize portal_skins -> sunburst_images -> logo.png image.
