Rebuilding DLL Catalog Theme: Streamlining Content Types

Tutorials

Samuel J Huskey has shared an update on the ongoing rebuild of the DLL Catalog site's theme, focusing on refining its content types. This is the 9th part of his ongoing series on the site build. 

The site includes four primary content types: Author Authority, DLL Work, Item Record, and Web Page, alongside the default Drupal content types for articles and basic pages. Samuel detailed his process of transforming the DLL Work content type by adapting existing templates and styles, ensuring a consistent layout without using the Panels module. His approach included creating a new Twig template and updating the SCSS file to maintain visual coherence. The strategy was similarly applied to the Item Record and Web Page content types, streamlining the design process. Samuel highlighted the efficiency of repurposing existing code, completing the task in a single morning.
