- WAMP - Windows LAMP Stack -> Linux - Apache Web Server - MySQL - PHP http://www.wampserver.com/en/\nMAMP - Macintosh LAMP Stack http://www.mamp.info/en/index.html\nUniform Server - Coral -> For Windows only. Will run a web server on your flash drive. http://wiki.uniformserver.com/index.php/Main_Page\n\nEach of these programs sets up a web server on your machine named http://localhost (IP address 127.0.0.1)\nAll the web files go in a specific folder - normally named: www\nQuick and easy install and maintenance without having to worry about matching versions etc.\nJust for development. NOT a secure environment.\n\nDrush - a command line tool for Drupal. Learn more at http://drupal.org/node/477684\nDon't leave home without it.\n
- 1. Download and unzip Drupal into localhost web folder myNewSiteNameIf you are using WAMP/MAMP this will be inside the www folder inside the WAMP/MAMP folders.\n2. Create database using phpMyAdmin - mySiteNameIf you are on a hosting service this might have a prefix (usually your hosting username)\n3. Duplicate the file in Sites/default/duplicate default.settings.php\n4. Rename to settings.php - Set permissions to Everyone r/w\n5. Create a folder named sites/default/files - Set permissions to Everyone r/w\n6. View site: http://localhost/mySiteName. This will automatically start the installation process.First page asks for credentials to use the database. Database name, database username and database password\n Drupal uses the database and creates tables and fills them with data. Drupal also installs some core modules.Second page asks for the Drupal admin infor you want to use. \n7. Done! Click on the "Visit my site" link.\n\nYou should go back and change the permissions of Sites/default/files to: everyone read only\n\nLater, you can quickly add modules and themes using Drush.\n
- Find themes at http://drupal.org/project/themes\n\nPrewritten themes such as danland.\nBase themes that can be easily sub-themed include omega, stark, and zen.\n\nAll themes are stored in mySiteRootDirectory/sites/all/themes \n (Do NOT put your themes in the main theme folder in the root directory!)\n\nInstall using the Learning, Step-By-Step method:\n1. Find a theme. http://drupal.org/project/themes\n2. Download for your version of Drupal into: mySite/sites/all/themes\n3. Unzip the files\n4. In Drupal use admin menu: Appearance (http://localhost/mySiteName/admin/appearance)\n5. Select the new theme as the default.\n6. Visit the home page using the house icon on the admin menu (http://localhost/mySiteName)\n\nSmart method:\n1. Find a theme and write down its name\n2. In terminal/command window cd to your site folder\n3. In terminal/command: drush dl nameOfTheme nameOf2ndTheme nameOf3rdTheme (Drush knows where to put everything.)\n4. In Drupal: Select Appearance from the Admin menu and select new theme as default\n\nVideo Demonstration: Creating a sub-theme - Using Omega \nDevelopers & maintainers Jake Strawn, Development Geeks and Sebastian Siemssen.\nThere is no need to enable the Alpha and Omega core themes although you do need those files in sites/all/themes \n\nOther resources - http://groups.drupal.org/omega-framework\nA list of Omega resources all on one page: http://drupal.org/node/819182 (hidden at the end of the handbook)\nUse the Omega Handbook to leverage this theme without extra frustration - http://drupal.org/node/819164\n\nThe layer structure of the default responsive css files is (from bottom to top): global → default → narrow → normal → wide\n\n
