Custom Themes
Permalink
Hi Everyone,
Concrete5 was suggested to me by a colleague for an open source CMS I should check out.
I have downloaded it and installed everything pretty easily now I am to the point where I want to start testing some custom them builds, what would be the best way for a first time user of Concrete5 to start building a custom theme?
Also if I want to put something on every page/post such as global navigation what is the best approach for that?
Thank you.

For your second question-
You'll want to edit the page-type defaults (all edits will auto-apply to every new page of that page type thereafter)
Go to- Dashboard>> Page Types>> Defaults (change the defaults for each page type accordingly)
Hope that helps.
Best wishes,
