Backend Template, where do I begin?

[DarkViper]

these days the 2.8.2 becomes stable.
a short break to refresh our energy... then we continue with the 2.9.x
Backend templates are one of the first things we will rebuild. So it's a short time more only till you can start.

When will the changes be placed? I'm still waiting for changes made to the TemplateEngine...
Looking into the files it's a pity, there seems to be no standards. Working with PHP is not allowed... ok so far...
but nevertheless I'd like to add - for example - a TEXT_BACK whereever I want to. But this is only possible in specific sections.
What changes will be done? And when? And will it be possible to have recourse to all variables of the language file or to the links in the backend (pages, media, settings,...) ....

Hi Seenit,
right now it's a bad time to start design a new backend-template.
Many things will be changed during the next weeks/months, so a template, based on the actual code will never work then.
From the DEV-Team only 'wb_theme' and 'argos_theme' will be supported until the code has reached a stable status.

Hi,

Try: Root> Templates > Theme name which you want to edit > tempales

You will see a lot of .htt files. They are kind of "blocks" for parts of pages. You can start there

cheers

Hi all,
Started exploring the WebsiteBaker cms this week and finished my first template.
Today I wanted to try and tackle a backend template, expecting it to go as easy as a regular template.
When i opened up the index.php of the standard backend template there was nothing in it...
Since I have little knowledge of php to begin with, I have no idea where i can find a visible structure of the layout e.g. divs and php defined blocks. What am i doing wrong?
Is there a guidelines file for admin templates?

A little pointer in the right direction would help a lot.
