Show correct button for multidelete-form, remove switched_output and doubled state-variables, show formerly lost delete-messages on ML after deletion instead of blank page
Global options (navigation) are even carried through so that they use the central part.
This falls back in place rather nicely, I hope it REALLY works. My first tests showed no issues.
- This introduces a new option "template_backend" that will be set to indicate the backend template, defaults to 2k11.
- The "Engine: xxx" line in info.txt still works, but only for the frontend
- The frontend fallback chain defaults to the old "default" template to ensure that themes will work that have "old-style" HTML output
- The backend fallback chain only falls back to 2k11 and then "default"
- In the future, we will remove templates/default/admin once the mechanism is proven stable
To test this in all cases you can:
- Copy 2k11/ to 2k11-custom, edit info.txt, give it a distinct name. Edit the admin/index.tpl file to add some code to ensure that you will see that template in the backend if you pick it, or adjust the style.css or whatever.
- Copy idea/ to idea-custom, edit info.txt, add a "Engine: 2k11" line. Now you can test how a template would look like that fallsback on 2k11 instead of "default"
Those permutations can be checked and come to my mind:
- Backend: 2k11, Frontend: 2k11
- Backend: 2k11-custom, Frontend: 2k11
- Backend: 2k11, Frontend: 2k11-custom
- Backend: 2k11, Frontend: idea
- Backend: 2k11, Frontend: idea-custom
- Backend: 2k11-custom, Frontend: idea
- Backend: 2k11-custom, Frontend: idea-custom
They seem to work.
Currently the display of backend and frontend theme in templates.inc.tpl takes up some larger space. Maybe it could be prettified somehow, maybe put frontend and backend template next to each other, not beneath each other? Maybe @yellowled has some suggestions.
@onli and @ophian - please have a look at this, since you both also worked on the fallback chains. Please tell me if you have issues with this. We can easily revert, if you see this approach as not workable. This is more a "proof of concept" draft.
Engine: default in info.txt will now lead to the template to use template/default as fallback before the default-template (2k11 currently). An approach to fix#130
Also, template_engine is not automatically set to default, as this was implicitly always the case
Includes adapting the layout to match the installer, using a proper
element for removeFiles msgs, removing unnecessary msg_* wrappers,
fixing the upgrader buttons etc.
