Chapter 4. Theming Modules
In the last chapter, we took a look at the Drupal theme system, and created our own theme. This chapter will begin where we left off, but with a twist—this time we will create a module with a default theme. To do this, we will develop a new module.
The Philosophy Quotes module that we will create in this chapter will use Drupal's theme system and a simple database query to theme the content of a custom content type.
Here are some of the items we will cover while working on this module:
- Creating a custom content type
- Performing simple database operations
- Registering a module's theme functions with the
hook_theme()function - Adding theme hooks to a module
- Adding CSS stylesheets to a module's default theme
- Using theme CSS and template files to override default module theme functions
In the next chapter, we will continue with this module. There, we will augment our Philosophy Quotes module with some JavaScript.
