Re: Textpattern themes: a plan
Agree. A simple, clean approach.

If it bothers people, we can add an exception to the tag so that it translates ‘skin’ into ‘theme’ so the nicer name can be used.
It’s no bother for those in the know but it something that would need explaining in the docs, in the forum etc. themes_root (or themes_base_path), theme_path and theme (or theme_name) would be obvious.

One question on this: When looking at the Preference panel > Admin I see we now have two entries:
Themes base pathwith (default) value:/Users/user/Sites/_txp472/themesandskin_dirwith valuethemes.Does that mean I could have different locations on the file system ? Or is the first entry now obsolete pending removal?
That would interest me too.

Yeah. I was trying to avoid the use of ‘path’ in a way because it’s not a path (as in file path) but couldn’t think of anything better so went with it. We could certainly tweak the names to remove references to ‘skin’. I think that’d be better.

Re: Textpattern themes: a plan
Okay, changed it slightly:
<txp:page_url type="images_root" />
<txp:page_url type="themes_root" />
<txp:page_url type="theme_path" />
<txp:page_url type="theme" />Outputs:
https://example.org/images
https://example.org/themes
https://example.org/themes/some-theme-name

Done and gone! (should have thought about that…)
Also, updated type strings are certainly better.

Re: Textpattern themes: a plan
Just discovered the the 4.7 beta and Phil’s plans for the Bootstrap 4 framework as a Textpattern theme, because I was looking at how to implement Bootstrap on my sites. I’m incredibly excited about this. Hollering on the sidelines!

Did this ever get implemented? I can’t seem to get it to work in Beta.3.

It certainly works here (TXP 4.7dev, though).
<txp:page_url type="images_root" /> outputs: http://example.local/images – note the lack of a / at the end.
images is the folder specified in the Preferences -> Admin

I figured it out. I was confusing site_url and page_url.
