There are a wide range of tools that allow people to edit websites. Some are very easy to use, and others allow an experienced developer to do amazing things. The Digitalus Site Manager bridges the gap...it makes it easy for people with basic computer skills to maintain their site content. Advanced users have the full power of the Zend Framework, Jquery AJAX library, and the DSF framework to do virtually anything that is possible.

The Anatomy of a Template

The template folders are located in /public_html/templates.

In this example we will look at this site's template.  The template is made up of 5 folders:

  1. helpers: these are Zend View helpers that are specific to the template
  2. images: these are images that are specific to the template, like background images, etc.
  3. layouts: these are like subtemplates.  this allows you to create a master page layout, then display different layouts within it.
  4. scripts: this is where you put any javascripts that are specific to the template.  keep in mind that Jquery and a good number of plugins are included in the core.  they are located in /public/scripts.
  5. styles: css stylesheets

The main template is the index.phtml file.  the info.html file is just a file that i use to keep notes. It is not used by system.
