This is a theme package for Alaveteli.
The intention is to support simple overlaying of templates and resources without the need to touch the core Alaveteli software.
Typical usage should be limited to:
-
Putting CSS-based customisations in
public/stylesheets/custom.css
-
Creating your own versions of non-functional pages (like "about us", at
lib/views/help/about.rhtml
-- and/or localised versions at lib/views/help/about.es.rhtml)
To install::
./script/plugin install git://github.com/mysociety/chiediamo-theme.git
Look in the lib/ folder of the plugin to see how the overrides happen.
Note that the install.rb
plugin point sets up a symlink to include
local resource files within the Rails public/
directory.
