Install new theme in Drupal 6
Going to install a new theme for shticks and giggles. I will be following these instructions.
After browsing themes, I decided to go with the Acquia Slate for its post-millenial, modern accents.
Create a new directory for downloaded themes:
$ sudo mkdir /etc/drupal/6/sites/all/themes
$ cd /etc/drupal/6/sites/all/themes/
Untar the downloaded theme into the specified directory:
$ sudo tar xzf /home/data/Desktop/acquia_slate-6.x-1.4.tar.gz
After going to Administer > Themes, Drupal presents Acquia Slate as an option. Here's the home page now:
Fairly obvious that it needs formatting but I like the layout. This drives home the point of deciding on styling and layout ahead of time?
