Description

Maguila Skin for PmWiki

This skin was done because I really like Haran's designs that use only css and html but are well formed, structured and minimal.

Overview

This skin uses some css techniques listed below:

1. Sane css typography by Owen briggs - Helps to show typogragraphy concistently across browsers - old and new.
2. Holy grail by Matthew Levine- Used part of the layout to implement the grids zoomed without breaking anything in most browsers.

This is a tableless skin with six layout sections :

 includes Site.ActionBar

 includes Site.SideBar

 Includes Site.PageBar 

 includes Site.RightSideBar 

 includes Site.FootBar

All sections can be turned off with the directives below:

• (:nosidebars:)
• (:noright:)
• (:noleft:)
• (:noaction:)
• (:nohead:)
• (:nofoot:)
• (:nosearch:)

You can also use actions in links to specify which sections display and font sizes:

• Use the action ?col=x to control the side bars
  • Hide all side bars with Skins.Maguila?col=0
  • Show only the left side bar with Skins.Maguila?col=1
  • Show only the right side bar with Skins.Maguila?col=2
  • Show both side bar with Skins.Maguila?col=3
• Use the action ?fnt=x to control the font size (with values from 0 to 3)

There are some options to be used within config.php, to turn options on and off:

• $EnableSkinOptions - Set to '1' inside maguila.php. If you want to turn off all other skin options, set this to '0'.
• $EnableSkinTitle - Set to '1' inside maguila.php. Enables color changes for the title from black to white for WikiWords.
• $EnableNoSections - Set to '1' inside maguila.php. Enables skin directives to control layout by users.
• $EnableFontOptions - Set to '1' inside maguila.php. Enables changes in font size (no javascript).
• $EnableActionHighlight - Set to 1' inside maguila.php . Enables highlight (underline) of action links in ActionBar;

All options above can be turned off and overridden inside config.php. For example you can write this in config.php:

$EnableSkinOptions = 0;

And all options will be turned off. You can also turn EnableSkinOptions on and set the other options off one by one.

and so on.

There is also a page -> Site.SkinConfig , where you can change some of the configurations using PmWiki forms.
