Joomla,drupal Or Wordpress Which Do I Use!!! / Joomla / Drupal / Plain Online Template Wizard / Tutorial: Create Templates For Joomla, Drupal, Direct Css-based Templates (2) (3) (4)
Joomla / Drupal Template Converter Online Application by Nobody: 7:14pm On May 01, 2010 |
If you have been following my threads, you will noticed that i created a joomla/drupal/plain template wizard which creates some basic template schemes and allow download. Now, that was very limited because there are times when you might have developed your plain template, and you wish to convert it into a joomla/drupal theme. This is not very easy to do manually, so i am working on this online application that is able to do that conversion. Challenges: I am about 75% done in this application. I am facing a challenge however, the way this application works, you zip your html template after making some modifications which i will explain later on. Then you upload the zipped stuff to my site which will unzip it, process the conversion and give your the option to redownload it back. The problem is that, during my development i used a particular folder to unzip stuffs, so if 2 simultaneous conversions are going on at the same time, they will class with each other. I am still looking for the easiest way to go around that. This application is not as easy as i immagined, but it is highly efficient, and i believe it will benefit several other developers as well. Contributions are welcomed. |

The application can be found at http://.com/portal/dev/tconvert i am still adding some finishing touches to it. there is an unintentional bug i did not get to discover until now. For this stuff to work properly, you need to be signed in as a registered user. |

Re: Joomla / Drupal Template Converter Online Application by Nobody: 12:51am On May 04, 2010 |
thankx |
Re: Joomla / Drupal Template Converter Online Application by Nobody: 11:49pm On May 04, 2010 |
I just tried to look into some points, Really the time frame of the convertio n is fast, but for those who use cybercafe and other means, it think it will be fine to make for a preloader of a sort, that will show, Status like Converting, and after conversion complete, You know we are currently looking at how web applications can displace desktop based app. Many converters show progress, so incoperating it in this is just fine, as it will make the users know it is working, cause some impatient peeps can't wait 1mins or 2 mins for the conversion to complete. Thanks |
Re: Joomla / Drupal Template Converter Online Application by Nobody: 10:33am On May 06, 2010 |
maybe i will use an ajax uploader. because the conversion process is in about 1 second or less. |
Re: Joomla / Drupal Template Converter Online Application by mcfranc(m): 2:12pm On May 07, 2010 |
I am totally fascinated by the fast improvement on this application. You inspire me, though am not too good in coding, i am intrigued by this. In summary, good job bro. keep coding! |
Re: Joomla / Drupal Template Converter Online Application by Nobody: 2:53pm On May 07, 2010 |
thank you all very much. So far the converter has been working well. I am going to work on the version 2 soonest. Some features: 1. It will show the percentage complete (using ajax uploader) - based on donpuzzo's contribution 2. I am going to skip modification of the source code, so you specify the tags you wish to modify (am still tryin to complete the plan for this) |
Re: Joomla / Drupal Template Converter Online Application by Nobody: 8:28am On Feb 07, 2012 |
While upgrading my site then, i could not support this tool, so i took it offline. People ave been requesting for it, so i will put it back online very shortly. But i will upgrade it first and make it support more stuffs. |
