[Template Manager] MODxGreen

Ok this is the first release of my Template Manager MODxGreen
It’s more similiar to MODx branding colours (i never loved actual XP/OSX style )

To complete install - simply upload ’manager’ folder in your MODx root - Than select MODXGreen in manager template settings

NOTE the complete installation overwrite 4 files:

manager/frames/topbar.php (changes the topbar background color to black)
manager/frames/1.php (changes the border frame colour to green - only for IE)

manager/includes/accesscontrol.inc.php (change styles and colours of login access to manager)

media/images/misc/logo.png (change MODx logo in Home section of manager)


This is the new style of manager


UPDATED VERSION HERE

I very much like those capture, and will certainly try it !

Great work Banzai

Hmm...maybe we could make a quick alteration for the next release that will allow for dropping in new templates? Modifying the core isn’t a good thing really. Granted, there’s no way around it right now...but with a small alteration to the manager, I think we could at least allow for the addition of custom templates. Hmm...much to think about!

Thank

I think there not much work to make more skinnable actual template system

we need to :

- apply a style to the topbar background in manager/frames/topbar.php

- clean css styles in manager/includes/accesscontrol.inc.php and put in manager/media/style/templatename/style.css

- refer media/images/misc/logo.png in css style (optional)
- clean up colour of frame borders in frame/1.php (optional)

I have to agree with you Jeff.
I mean, the next major release that Raymond will do towards the manager will be the way to go, but before that, we might need an option to have color changes of the manager, so people can pick and choose which color they prefer.

Nice one Banzai!

Thanks Banzai, this is a great alteration to the manager, much cleaner looking.

This deserves to be the new default. Outstanding job.

That’s quite a statement from our founder. So will it be shipped with 0.9.2 release?
