a theme for Pinax/django-user-accounts based on Twitter's Bootstrap

Project description

A theme for Pinax 0.9 based on Twitter’s open source Bootstrap framework.

Quick Start

Include “pinax-theme-bootstrap” in your requirements file and “pinax_theme_bootstrap” in your INSTALLED APPS.

Make sure both template loaders and staticfiles finders includes app directories.

Site name comes from Sites fixture.

Your “site_base.html” should extend “theme_base.html” and should provide “footer” and “nav” blocks (the latter should just be a ul of li of a links).

Your pages should have blocks “head_title” and “body” and should extend “site_base.html”.

The url name “home” should be defined as the homepage.

Requirements

This theme is officially supported when used in conjuction with Pinax 0.9. If using the theme with Django < 1.4, you will need to install a recent version of django-staticfiles as we use the {% render %} template tag.

Forms

This theme ships with a basic template tag for rendering forms that match the markup expected by Bootstrap.

To style forms, add the following to the top of your template

{% load bootstrap_tags %}

and include your form using the following markup:

<form>
    <fieldset>
        <legend>My Form</legend>
        {% csrf_token %}
        {{ form|as_bootstrap }}
        <div class="form-actions">
          <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Save changes</button>
        </div>
    </fieldset>
</form>

Bootstrap includes styles for four types of forms. To change the display of your form, add one of the following class attributes to your form tag:

Name

Class

Description

Vertical (default)

.form-vertical

Stacked, left-aligned labels over controls

Horizontal

.form-horizontal

Float left, right-aligned labels on same line as controls

Inline

.form-inline

Left-aligned label and inline-block controls for compact style

Search

.form-search

Extra-rounded text input for a typical search aesthetic

Upgrading from Bootstrap 1.x

Previous versions of this theme were based off of Bootstrap 1.x. The following is a list of changes that you need to be aware of when upgrading existing sites:

  • The default grid has changed from 16 columns to 12 columns.

  • Bootstrap 2 provides a responsive grid, which we’ve enabled by default.

  • Forms markup has changed slightly, see the example above.

  • Navigation bar markup now requires a class=”nav” on the ul.
