wrongblonde Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 Now that I've got the gallery working thanks to the great people at TCH . I was wondering how do you change the layout and the color scheme of the gallery itself? Like these sites: http://brookandlucas.com/gallery/ and http://www.rebecca-herbst.com/gallery/ Both uses coppermine, but they layout is different from the ones offered. I was wondeirng how do they do this. Quote
TCH-Thomas Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 In coppermine you have several themes. You can change theme via the configuration in your gallery, but you can also modify them. The easiest way to do that (atleast what I found out) is to modify all files inside a chosen theme. Lets say you like the layout in general for theme "water drops" but not the colors. Assuming you use windows, in explorer, unzip the file and navigate to themes > your chosen theme, then modify all images and the css file to suit your needs. Then upload all to your coppermine and thats it. One word of caution: BACK UP the entire themes directory first so you can reset it all if needed. Let me know if you need any help. Quote
wrongblonde Posted December 31, 2004 Author Posted December 31, 2004 Hi Thomas! *waves& thanks so much for the help! I do have one more question though. Am I allowed to change the banner on the top [ Coppermine Photo Gallery ] to something else? If I am, how am I to do this? And how would I center the picture? Thanks for the help you rock! Quote
TCH-Thomas Posted December 31, 2004 Posted December 31, 2004 Yes, you may do pretty much anything you like as long the powered by... on the bottom stays. As for how to do that, I will have to check that since it was a long time I played with that part of coppermine. Or we can hope that someone knows the answer before. Quote
TCH-Thomas Posted December 31, 2004 Posted December 31, 2004 Lets say you are using classic theme (modified or not), then in template.html you should only have to change ><img src="themes/classic/images/site_logo.png"... to your logo name and upload it to the classic directory inside coppermine directory in your site.
