======Урок по созданию темы======

**Сайт на GetSimple из статического сайта**

Будь это ваш сайт, который вы когда-то делали, или страница или шаблон, которые нужно превратить в тему GetSimple – технология ничем не отличается. Для этого урока за основу взят бесплатный HTML-шаблон Beadysite: http://www.html5-templates.co.uk/beadysite/. 

====Подготовительные работы====

I install a copy of GetSimple in a new folder under Wampserver and I download and unzip the the Beady files. It's a page and a css and an images folder already arranged correctly for a GS theme so I put the whole Beadysite folder in the theme folder of my new local GS site alongside Cardinal and Innovation. Inside the folder I copy the file index.html and rename it template.php. Now I can activate the the beadysite as a theme in my new GS site and test the changes I make to the file as I go along. All the links to images and to the css are broken but we will soon fix that. I open the file template.php from the beadysite folder in my text editor and open the template.php from the Cardinal theme alongside it so I can copy and paste the tags from one to the other.

This is the static index.htm

====Редактирование====

From the top, these are the changes I make:

**1**       The file needs to start with:
''<?php if(!defined('IN_GS')){ die('you cannot load this page directly.'); }?>''
Optionally, I put in the commented notes, but make sure the php tag is closed with ''?>''

**2**       Between the title tags I copy and paste the php tags
''<?php get_page_clean_title(); ?> &lt; <?php get_site_name(); ?>''

I don't much like the ”less than” symbol so I am going to replace it with a long dash:
''<?php get_page_clean_title(); ?> &mdash; <?php get_site_name(); ?>''

**3**	''<?php get_header(); ?>'' is required in the head section by some plugins

**4**	The relative link to the css is broken already so I make it an absolute link by replacing ''href="style.css"'' with ''href="<?php get_theme_url(); ?>/style.css"''

That's the head section done and now that the link to the css is mended I can look at my new GS page in my browser with a little more pleasure.

**5**	It's optional but handy to id the page body with ''<body id="<?php get_page_slug(); ?>" >'' It makes it easy to restyle a single page.

**6**	In the header I fix the links to images by adding ''<?php get_theme_url(); ?>/'' and check that they now display on my page.

**7** That first image is the site logo. I want the logo on each page of my site to be a link back to the homepage, and I want it to have the site name as alt text so the whole line is written like this:
''<a href="<?php get_site_url(); ?>"><img src="<?php get_theme_url(); ?>/images/logo.png" width="303" height="82" alt="<?php get_site_name(); ?>" /></a>''

Better still would be to replace the image with the text of the site name by using the tag ''<?php get_site_name(); ?>'' and styling with font and colour but we will do that another day.

**8**	The first block of content headed 'About Beady Site' isn't the main content so I am going to leave it how it is and come back to it.

**9**	The second block of content (<div id="left">) is to be my main one so I replace the title (Welcome to Beady Site) with ''<?php get_page_title(); ?>''

**10**	All the remaining content to the end of the div I replace with ''<?php get_page_content(); ?>''

**11**	If we want we can put in the 'published on' date statement but I am going to leave it out

**12**	The next div (id="right") is the right hand sidebar so all the content is replaced with
''<?php get_component('sidebar');?>''

**13**	The next div is the left hand side bar, confusingly called “sidebar” . All we have to do is replace the list items of the nav menu with ''<?php get_navigation(return_page_slug()); ?>''

**14**	Another link to an image needs mending with ''<?php get_theme_url(); ?>/''

**15**	In the footer now 'Your Site Name ' is replaced with ''<?php get_site_name(); ?>'' and the copyright year can be ''<?php echo date('Y'); ?>'' so that it will always show the current year.

**16**	We ought to Link to GS with ''<?php get_site_credits(); ?>''

**17**	Some plugins require ''<?php get_footer(); ?>''

That's it for a basic page. This is my new file template.php:<code>
<?php if(!defined('IN_GS')){ die('you cannot load this page directly.'); }

====Контент====

Now when I log in to admin I can enter the site name and base url once only and put the main page content and page titles back in through the GS back end.

There was a secondary content block on the page, headed 'About Beady Site' which I also want to make editable. To do this I go to Theme and Edit Components in the back end. Here I can create a component and write in (in html) whatever content I want to include and in my template.php file I paste in the get_component tag.

If I don't want to enter the content with html tags I can create a page under the Pages tab and insert the page contents into my template with <?php getPageContent('slug'); ?> where 'slug' is the filename for the page data displayed in Pages - Edit Page - Page Options.


====Окончательная отделка====

All the theme files go in a folder and the folder name determines the theme name as shown in the GS backend. ''template.php'' and any other page templates should be in the theme folder and not in a sub folder. There should be a sub folder called //images// and in that folder a file named ''screenshot.png'' which will be the screenshot displayed in the backend when themes are selected. It shouldn't be too big; 240px wide is plenty.

GetSimple's wysiwyg editor will display page contents much more accurately if you put in the theme folder a file named ''editor.css'' which includes the basic styles for the theme.
