[b]Red Development - A Guide To The Schema System[/b]
|
|
|
|
A schema, in a nutshell, is a collection of settings for a bunch of variables to define
|
|
certain elements of a theme. A schema is loaded as though it were part of config.php
|
|
and has access to all the same information. Importantly, this means it is identity aware,
|
|
and can be used to do some interesting things. One could, for example, restrict options
|
|
by service class, or present different options to different members.
|
|
|
|
By default, we filter only by whether or not expert mode is enabled. If expert mode is
|
|
enabled, all options are presented to the member. If it is not, only scheme, background
|
|
image, font face, and iconset are available as choices.
|
|
|
|
A schema is loaded *after* the member's personal settings. Therefore, to allow a member
|
|
to overwrite a particular aspect of a schema you would use the following syntax:
|
|
[code]
|
|
if (! $foo)
|
|
$foo = 'bar';
|
|
[/code]
|
|
However, there are circumstances - particularly with positional elements - where it
|
|
may be desirable (or necessary) to override a member's settings. In this case, the syntax
|
|
is even simpler:
|
|
[code]
|
|
$foo = 'bar';
|
|
[/code]
|
|
Members will not thank you for this, however, so only use it when it is required.
|
|
|
|
If no personal options are set, and no schema is selected, we will first try to load a schema
|
|
with the file name "default.php". This file should never be included with a theme. If it
|
|
is, merge conflicts will occur as people update their code. Rather, this should be defined
|
|
by administrators on a site by site basis.
|
|
|
|
You schema does not need to - and should not - contain all of these values. Only the values
|
|
that differ from the defaults should be listed. This gives you some very powerful options
|
|
with very few lines of code.
|
|
|
|
Note the options available differ with each theme. The options available with the Redbasic
|
|

|
|
|
|
[li] nav_colour

|
The colour of the navigation bar. Options are red, black and silver. Alternatively,

|
|
hover effects.[/li]
