About this workshop

Agave was built to be customised — and this workshop walks you through exactly how. Over three and a half hours we'll move from a fresh install to a fully re-skinned site, working in small groups with a mentor on hand throughout.

You'll leave with a theme that looks nothing like the default, and the confidence to keep shaping it after you go home.

What we'll cover

  • The token system — re-colouring the whole theme by editing a handful of CSS variables
  • Swapping the typeface and adjusting the type scale
  • Customising the header and footer for your organisation
  • Building a new content-type template from the existing ones

Who it's for

Front-end developers, designers and site builders who are comfortable with HTML and CSS. No prior Plone theming experience is required, but a working Plone install on your laptop is essential.

Bring with you

A laptop with a recent Plone running locally, and a code editor you're comfortable in. We'll share a setup guide by email a week before the session.

Your facilitators

The session is led by members of the Agave working group, with support from the local Plone México community.
