CiviEvent theme to align with Drupal theme
March 13, 2013, 12:07:24 pm

When an event is created in Civi, Drupal creates a clean URL for the event.  I have found that when I visit the clean URL that Drupal creates I am presented with a nicely themed event page.

On the contrary, when I view the direct CiviEvent link which is often sent out in emails and reminders, the page is not themed and doesn't appear styled as I would hope.

Is there a way or document that details how to do a custom theme for Civi, specificaly for how Events are displayed to align it with my Drupal themes?

If not, would this be something I can suggest as a future improvement?

thanks

I think that if you go to Drupal theme settings page you should be able to specify which theme you want use for back end civi stuff - and a separate one (your default Drupal one) for front facing pages such as Events and Contrib pages.

eg at <yoursite>admin/appearance


CIVICRM
Choose theme for CiviCRM.
CiviCRM Administration theme

Choose theme for CiviCRM administration/backend pages.
CiviCRM Public theme

Choose theme for CiviCRM frontend pages.

I have forgotten if this requires enabling CiviCRM Theme module or not
