Create a Subscribie theme¶
How to create a frontend theme for Subscribie.
Create a new theme using Subscribie cli¶
1. Go to your root subscribie folder¶
cd subscribie
2. Create a new theme, based on jesmond theme¶
subscribie newtheme --name mynewtheme --base jesmond
The subscribie newtheme command will take a copy of
the latest jesmond theme (from github) and rename it to the
name you gave.
Find your new theme in your themes directory. If you want to use another theme as a base, look at the themes already in the Subscribie github organisation: https://github.com/Subscribie?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=theme-&type=&language=
3. Edit your .env file to the new theme name¶
Take out the existing theme name and src for jesmond, and replace it with your own, removing the src attribute. For example:
THEME_NAME=mytheme
4. Run your new theme¶
Run your subscribie site locally. During the output, you should
see your theme name has changed to mynewtheme:
export FLASK_DEBUG=True
subscribie run
...
...
Theme name is: mytheme
...
Make some changes to your theme, and an reload. It will look exactly the same as jesmond to start with.
