In this session I’ll present a roadmap to learning Drupal Theming. You won’t learn everything about Drupal theming, but you will learn that you don’t need to know everything in order to start building Drupal themes.

We’ll cover all the major parts of Drupal theming:

  • Theming Examples

  • Architecture of the Drupal Theme Layer

  • .info files

  • Stylesheet inheritance

  • Template files

  • Template variables

  • Preprocess functions

  • Theme functions

Having played with the Zen theme, I’m looking forward to having John provide a guided tour through theme building.
