Tried creating a theme following the "'concrete-ize' a basic HTML theme in 8 minutes" tutorial (http://www.concrete5.org/documentation/how-tos/designers/make-a-theme/) and kept getting javascript error:
Took a while to figure it out, but I added the following at the bottom of my <body>
Not sure if this is the proper way to do things, but it seems to be working for me
ccm_menuInit is not defined

Yup, that is correct. All themes should have that, but you will see problems editing if you don't have footer_required in C5.5 and up.
Thanks for the quick response. Too bad the first tutorial I came across about creating custom themes in the concrete5 documentation doesn't mention this necessary piece of information at all! So far I'm quite liking concrete5 but now I'm a little nervous that this documentation isn't kept up to date.
Yeah, I've asked the core team to update that page as I am sure lots of other folks have come across the same issue.
That said, they have a lot on their plate and footer_required, while it has been around for quite some time, has not been /absolutely/ necessary until C5.5+. Everything used to be output in the head via header_required. Now, the majority of JS for edit mode is output via footer_required which speeds up your site and is a best practice.
