Additional Configuration

Color Schemes

This template uses the CSS dispatcher of the latest DokuWiki release and its CSS replacement technique. Therefore a style.ini.dist lies in ./lib/tpl/ach/, which must be renamed to style.ini, waiting for your inventive color schemes.

The default scheme is just simple black and white. For examples how to change the style.ini parameters, there are three more color schemes (more or less ugly) distributed in ./lib/tpl/ach/, named style.ini.<name>.scheme. Applying one of those is simple: Just copy their content into style.ini – overwriting the old content.

If you apply a color scheme by renaming a file to style.ini, you probably have to touch it 1).

#> touch /path/to/style.ini

Most parameters of the style.ini handle the colors, but you can even add, remove or widen the section indenting.

Although the template comes with a fixed sidebar, you can add whatever you like to the top of that sidebar by creating a wiki page called “sidebar”. See also the FAQ on sidebars.

Comments and Questions

The discussion-button is a form → it won't be googled. Maybe we could add a <link>? Johannes Buchner 2006-01-23 11:11

One reason why I made the discussion-button a button and not a link, is because I did not want discussion pages to be indexed by search engines. But you can either use a link instead of a button (search for “link instead of button” in the template's main.php) or use a google sitemap. — Anika Henke 2006-02-02 20:51

I am curious as to how I would change the DokuWiki logo you have at the top of the page. I would like to substitute my own images in there. Jeff Childs 2006-02-12 12:27

To change the logo you have to alter the line background:url(images/logo.png) no-repeat 25px 0; in design.css inside .dokuwiki .wrapper{}. Exchanging the logo is simple, but to adjust the position of that image could be a bit tricky (depending on how different sized your image is). Just play around with those two values (35px and 5px) … — Anika Henke 2006-02-12 23:03 adjusted: — ach 2011/01/02 00:52

Bug in PHP/5.3.0: If you are using PHP/5.3.0, you have to copy/move all the files from lib/tpl/ach/css/ to lib/tpl/ach/ and remove all occurrences of “css/” in style.ini. Otherwise PHP cannot parse the ini file.
