Build our first theme:
Make "info.json"
-What is "info.json"
The file info.json is a particular file related to themes. This json file contains all information about the theme: name, author, version...
Make a new folder on your pc and call it like you want.
Next inside the new folder make a new file, call it: "info.json":
Edit the file with your favourite editor and copy or write the below things.
What are these things?
- "theme_name": The theme name
- "theme_author": Author name
- "theme_zip_file_name": The .zip file of the theme who contain our theme files
- "my_cms_version": The supported version of mycms
- "theme_error_page": Name of the error page without extension
- "theme_maintenance_page": Name of the maintenance page without extension
- "theme_version": The theme version
- "theme_languages": All the languages files inside the "languages" folder in our theme, separated by a comma without extension
Now edit the info json like this, add author name, theme name, error and maintenance page name...
I haven't filled "theme_zip_file_name" and "theme_languages" because I insert them later.
Make a new folder and call it like "theme_name", but all lowercase and if you have used spaces convert them in underscore.
