Choose a good base themeĪs I mentioned in my previous post, Planning Your Drupal 8 Theme: Choosing a Base Theme, there are lots of factors that will influence your final decision, but you'll eventually start feeling more comfortable with one, and that will be the one you'll be using for most projects. In my particular case, after nine years of building Drupal themes, reading how other themers do it, and learning from my mistakes, I came up with a few tips I would like to share with everyone. Create a file called BsRowLayout.php at the path src/Plugin/Layout.There are many ways of building sites and themes - be it Drupal, Wordpress, Magento or any Content Management System. You’ll need to create a layouts and bs_row directory.Īdd the following Twig code: ģ. Create the following file in the module layouts/bs_row/. Add the following into it: bs_row:Ĭlass: 'Drupalww_bootstrap4_layoutsPluginLayoutBsRowLayout'Ģ. In this file you define your custom layouts. The layout is not something specific for the Card component.ġ. The Row layout will allow users to add any blocks into 1 to 4 columns using layout builder. This file is not required in Drupal 8 and above, but we’ll need it for later. Create a ww_bootstrap4_layouts.module file. Create a ww_bootstrap4_ file and add the following into it: name: WW Bootstrap4 layoutsģ. Create a folder in modules/custom/ww_bootstrap_layouts.Ģ. NOTE: The generate command only works in Drush 9 and up.ġ. If you use Drush, just run the following command and fill in the prompts. Go ahead and create a custom module called ww_bootstrap4_layouts. This layout would be called BS Row and it’ll be used as a section in layout builder. To fix a few bugs created in the previous video, I decided we needed to create a custom layout. Get a copy of the built site from GitHub. So we start off by creating a Row layout which fixes the bug from part 1 and we implement the Bootstrap Carousel component (clients love carousels) using block types. Part 2 (this video) is a little more advanced because we create a custom module, implement two layouts and implement a hook_preprocess_HOOK. For example, we couldn’t drag-and-drop any of the card components because I overrode the inline-block template. We start off by fixing a few bugs, which I introduced and didn’t notice until I started playing around with the site after the first video. ![]() In the show notes below, I outline what we implement in part 2 of the Drupal live site build.
