Skeleton Theme

[lucamusolesi]

Hello everyone, not seeing any html5 responsive and mobile ready themes here I think it could be useful for someone if I release a theme that I'm using for a private project.

Skeleton Theme is my personal theme based on the Skeleton framework, this theme still maintain all the features of the Skeleton framework. That means that this theme can be used as a theme ready to use or you can use it as a framework to build new themes.

Live Demo: http://lucamusolesi.altervista.org/skeleton/

If you want to know more about the framework features give a look at [url] http://www.getskeleton.com/[/url].

Installation instruction:
-Put the Skeleton directory in your theme folder and that's all
-If you want to have a better comprehension of the theme upload also the data folder on your root to have some test pages ready. (Hi highly suggest it)

Usage:
-There are 3 templates page, the default page is a standard page and also call a components that can contain images or a banner or what you want, and example is in my data directory in the zip.
-The page.php is a simple page with wide layout, really useful for all pages of the site.
-The blank.php is a page for who wants to use the features of the Skeleton framework and it's only for theme developers, if you don't need it you can delete the file.

Customization:
-To change the default background you can change the file Skeleton/stylesheets/back.png
-To cange favicon you have to change the 4 files in the Skeleton/images folder

Additional Features:
-The theme also provide a class="ghost" to be used with any div that will hide content when the site is viewed on a mobile device, you can find an example in the components I provide in the data folder in the zip file.

Please try the theme and let me know how it works and if it's good to be placed in the Extend. Any comment is welcome.

Please upload this theme to the extend.
It would be best to allow download from there rather than your personal website or this thread.

Yes I understand it, I just wanted some testing before, and to know if the theme is good enough the stay in the Extend.

I've added it to the Extend repository, I hope to have some feedback.

Thank you, I forgot to delete it, I uploaded the new zip without the website.xml file.

Suggestion: change your files' encoding to UTF-8 without BOM. Had to change manually to avoid failures with special chars.

Thanks a bunch for this theme, it rocks my socks! Switched to it today from another theme, which failed really hard with changing window size and this is just blissful compared to it. Already brought my changes over from the other theme and smooth sailing all the way.

Are you sure that it's not your editor to add the BOM? My files are stripped from BOMs.. Uhm I wonder if anyone else checked for it..

Anyway I'm glad you like it! Please let me know the link of the site using it if it's online, thank you!

Well, I opened the files in Notepad++ and it said they were ANSI. I didn't modify them first, they were all ANSI.

Okay, I give up. I'm unable to increase the line height of the navigation with CSS. The site that is using your template is http://althousing.org. You can see that they have created a rather verbose nav bar and it has split into two lines. It needs more space between the two lines. I added a class to the ul, but nothing I do displays. Any ideas as to what I may be doing wrong?

The Alt Housing people love the theme, too.

Thank you.

base.css file
around 430 line, find nav ul li , and change its content to

Code:

display: inline-block;
    padding: 5px 0; /* set your own padding*/

yojoe gave you the right solution!
