How create a new template

How create a new template to Dolphin?

I was looking in Boonex, Expertzzz... and I can't found anything. Just empty words.

Were I can see a tutorial or something like that to create myself Template?

How some developers can create these amazing templates with three columns, imagens and animations and great customizations??!??

check over on mrpowless's site. http://darrenpowless.com tutorials. i recall him having something to do with themeing.

later,

Thanks buddy... I check there, but nothing... The Powless's site shows how INSTALL a new template, but I need to CREATE a new template.

I want to CREATE a new template and after INSTALL it.

Somebody knows where I can find some help to create myself template?!?!?

Regards yours,

Willian

Anybody knows if exist a tutorial or similar where I can find something that can help me to create myself template?

That is completely useless for creating Dolphin templates.

use firebug in firefox.

 Useless.

I copied UNI into a new folder, changed the name in "Templates/MyNewFolder/Scripts/BxTemplName.php", but it doesn't show up in the "Settings->Advanced Settings->Template" menu.

Is there an extra step I'm missing?

The documentation is either incorrect or incomplete or both. Do I need to buy a license in order to customize it?

What is the name of MyNewFolder you created? All template folders other than base must start with tmpl_

So you could use tmpl_mynewtemplate as the name of a template folder.

What BxDolTemplate means?

Is copying renaming tmpl_*** enough?

So many comments here and yet no solution. This is bad. Boonex needs a better documentation on tutorial to help everyone find what they need.

I think the easiest way out for now is clone and edit some of the existing templates. The complexity of Dolphin's coding may not allow you to put your creativity to use at least if you are a beginner.

Almost all templates on the market are just color change of existing templates; the structural design are just as poor as the ancient design of existing templates.

A good documentation is good for success of every software

BxDolTemplate is template class which is in inc/classes/BxDolTemplate.php file.

After copying/renaming tmpl_* folder you need to change values in scripts/BxTemplName.php file in your template folder.

Dolphin templates aren't easy to design because they're manipulated by various scripts. For example, it's not the template that creates columns or display boxes, that's all done by page builder.  The header image is changed in Settings and other components are changed elsewhere.

At best, all you can achieve is change fonts, background colours, box colours and heading colours. That's all done trough a particular templates CSS (Cascading Style Sheet). You can take an existing template, change a few styles and come up with something truly unique, but this isn't for the faint hearted. CSS is not easy to learn.

As one person mentioned above, you can use a Firefox extension called Firebug or Chome's Inspector to find the CSS code for a particular template feature, then modify that code in the Template's CSS file to make changes.

Some possible changes are background colours, fonts, borders, rounded corners, spacing of boxes etc. Don't expect to learn this overnight because you won't. As there's no set rule, Boonex can't possibly write a tutorial on the subject. If they did, it would be a 400 page thick book.
