Andrej Gaevskij's List: Moodle

• The pix folder

   

  This contains all pictures and icons used in the theme. Themes come with pictures for the tabs and eventually for the gradients.  
• All images linked from header.html and footer.html should use $CFG->httpswwwroot
• $meta (all the meta tags, including stylesheets)
• The styles.php file is called from header.html and builds the bridge to the CSS files.
• You don't need to edit anything much in this file, use config.php instead.
• The one variable you may want to change during development, however is $lifetime. Set it to a very small value (like 1 second) to prevent the theme from caching too long when you are making changes.

• So, depending on your settings, you may have up to three stylesheets for a theme: 

   
  1. "standard" theme - theme/standard/styles.php 
  2. "parent" theme - theme/parenttheme/styles.php 
  3. "main" theme - theme/yourtheme/styles.php
