Features

  • Additional portlet manager at the site top right area allows adding any type of portlet there.
  • Configurable top area height and second column width.
  • Changeable site width. Schools Plone Theme is optimized for 1024px screen width.

Outdated Features

The following are Schools Theme features supported up to 3.3.2 release:

  • 'Contact info' and 'School Links' static portlets, displaying information from the corresponding documents, were replaced by additional portlets manager starting from version 4.0.
  • The theme was initially designed to rotate photos randomly with every page reload. There were 2 views developed for that purpose: 'document_with_photo_view' view for pages and 'folder_with_photo_summary_view' for folders or smart folders.
  • Editable site slogan displayed under the photo.
  • 'Weather Portlet' introduced for Plone 2.5 skin removed in 3.0 skin version.

Acknowledgement
