no revolution templates?

there’s not a single front end template listed for Revolution in the front-end templates repository (http://modxcms.com/extras/repository/11). what am i missing? are there really not any templates for revolution yet?

Revolution is in beta but you can basically use any html template with MODx (Revolution and Evolution) with minimal effort.

For example download template you like: http://www.opensourcetemplates.org and add tags like pagetitle and content to the template and you are done.

Hav alook at ADDON30 in JIRA, http://svn.modxcms.com/jira/browse/ADDON-30, there are a few evo templates I converted and packaged here.

I’ve converted a few of mine for testing, but am waiting for details on how to package them so you can use the package manager instead of manually installing them. I suspect some others might be doing the same.

Does your Template include TVs? Content-types? Any other related objects?

I just use chunks at this point in time (other than template, images, and css as one would expect).

Ok. We’ll look into creating a Template Packager 3pc or something of the sort.

Th zip file in ADDON-30 contains packaged templates if I remember correctly, you just have to build them into transport packages, you could look at the scripts in the _build directory, some are just plain, some come with chunks etc.
