Themer Friendly Module Development

jasonsavino

How many times have you sat down to theme a site only to find that a custom or contrib module is outputting data that doesn't work with the comps. Unordered lists that need to be divs, divs that need to be spans or tables that need to be anything but a table! Modules that have unthemable HTML as output have caused hours of unneeded stress that could have been avoided.

In this session I will discuss how to help module developers output code that themers can use without losing the intergity of the module by:

  • Demo a fully functional sample module with two different issues
  • Discussing rational to change each issue
  • Walk through the code modifications for each issue

Front-end and back-end developers both are welcome!
