Creating a Site Theme for Community Server 2007
Since the release of Community Server 2007 RC1 I have been working on some site themes. While the “Theme Configuration” lets you change a lot of the theme which address this nice. It does not let you change the masters and navigation, as with creating a new theme from the ground up. I have created a theme using Visual Studio, when creating any page which has that master attached you can see the master under that page letting you get a feel for what the final page is going to look like. When doing this with themes in community server, you cannot exactly open these like that in Visual Studio – to me you should be able to this, unless I am missing something. Has anybody opened Community Server in Microsoft Expression yet? I would be interested if you could create themes in Expression. I would have tried, but my two install disks seem to be corrupt for an x64 install. Well I guess it time for me to dive back into the ‘Professional Community Server’ book.
