All,
I'll like to create a content type similar to the Articles content type but specifically for Events. I realize the Article content type is used to display blogs on the Evolve site at: http://demo.themesvision.com/drupal/evolve/blog
Is it as simple as copying and renaming the 6 node templates located at http:///sites/all/themes/evolve/templates/node
Or is the appropriate question - How does one go about cloning the Article content type to repurpose it for capturing events on the site?
Thank you for your assistance in this matter.
Sincerely,
PI
Hello pidusogie,
To create a content type similar Articles content type for Events you SHOULD do steps:
1. Clone content type (ex: called Events)
2. Customize Article views to show Events content type instead of Articles
3. Customize template files (copy, rename and modify if needed)
4. Customize stylesheet by adding classes for events to *.less file if needed
Thanks,
OK lehoa85, I have done as you've instructed above, how do I get these modified templates (#3 above) to show up in the Content type's custom display settings list, within the Manage display tab?
What I need help with is the following:
How do I get the following tabs (buttons) to show up in the Manage Display tab of the Event Content Type after performing step 3 above?
Default
Full Content
Teaser
Dexp Portfolio
Event Large Image (This one)
Event Timeline (This one)
Event Slider (This one)
Index Event (This one)
Also see attached graphic illustration
Thank you for your assistance
