Vanilla open source was terminated 1 January 2025 by Higher Logic. See this announcement for more information.

So when are these influx of themes coming then?! ;-)

As 1.0 is now almost complete (or rather the 1.0 pre-release, which is pretty much spot on) is it about time to start creating themes or should I wait for the final v1.0 to be released incase there are any changes? In a way I'm looking forward to at least attempting to do a design, but then I realise my design skills are completely terrible, coupled with the fact I'd be linking the CSS to values and things that I've not coded myself (confusion++) and it could be a little disasterous, but hey, I'll give it a go anyway :D

    I'm going to convert over (and improve) my Pure theme for 1.0, got a bit of encouragement when a certain someone from Apple emailed me recently liking my theme :)

    Oh man, if Apple adopted Vanilla...

    @c-unit, let's hope they don't.

    I think a few people are just hesitant to make a new style (a considerable undertaking) when the code structure is still volatile.

    Where is this "templating" system?
  • lechlech ✭
    the "templating" system is in the "themes" folder which is applied with "styles"! yeah, I agree with bergamot that it's still a little volatile at the moment, well, not so much volatile, just not geared towards those willing to get their hands REALLy dirty :) I have a few ideas I want to try out which could lessen how nasty things get in there though.

    As soon as it's an official 1.0 then I'll be theming up!

    Why wouldn't you want Apple to use Vanilla?
  • Mr. FahrenheitMr. Fahrenheit
    Oh I was thinking automated template editor...

    Ok, well, if you're still running the 0.9.x series of vanilla, I've finally gotten around and have thrown dirt and sky up onto the /addons directory for those of you who've missed it. I'll hopefully be rehashing them for 1.0 if there's enough requests for it, else I might come up with something different :)
