This is a "hello world" type 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/alavetelitheme.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.
