Red Fashion, Free theme for Elgg. This free Elgg theme features dark red, red and black colors with lots of images. Works on Elgg 1.6.1 (1.5 uses different image styles for message icons), Elgg 1.5 version I will be released soon.

My second freeĀ  elgg theme to be released.

It was tested in Mozilla Firefox 3.5 ,Navigator 9, Opera 8 and Internet Explorer 8 and IE 6.

Please let me know your experiences or problems with other browsers (leave a comment below).

Main Features:

SEO Friendly Titles: Reversed Sitename and page/item title so sitename shows after page title

ElggTopbar is removed completely and all items show under header in new bar (except user messages).

User Messages (if any) displayed on left of search.

Copyright year in footer automatically updates current year.

If using External Pages plugin, left side text will appear on frontpage and righthand shows when logged in.

This Free Elgg theme uses text with site name wrapped in H1 tags in header (for less bandwidth) so it will look slightly different from the demo site.

If you need custom logo image or any other customizations , contact me .

All basic plugins and few extra ones are re-styled to match the theme.

Any other plugins might need re-styling, we can do that as well.

  1. Recently I had user contact me via email about using a custom logo on the Red Fashion Elgg theme. I responded back and thought I should post it here for others that want to use custom logo/image in this theme to read. So here is the original message and my response:

    Message:
    ” Hello, my name is Briana and i was wondering how do you upload your own custom logo using this beautiful theme. And in what dimensions and file name. For example logo.gif as an example.”
    My response:
    There are two logo images, one when user is not logged in and other when they log in (these files are header_left.jpg -used when not logged in and header_left_log.jpg – when logged in) you can find them in graphics folder of the theme and they are two different sizes because as you probably noticed when logged in, header area gets narrower.

    Now one option is to edit those two files in photoshop or similar program (Gimp) and add text or another image to it, save and upload/replace to your server.

    Other option is to create transparent image/logo and add it to the html or through css file.

    Another thing you’ll have to do is remove line of code wrapped in h1 tags that display site name as link in header_contents.php and header_contents_no.php files found in red_fashion\views\default\page_elements\ folder so it wont show up over your new logo image.

    Hope this helps, if you need any customizations let me know and I can do that for a small fee.
