Drupal 8 Theme using Bootstrap & Components
- Using composer, run
composer require drupal/byu_theme. - Go to Appearance > Settings > byu_theme. You will see settings similar to the byu2017_d7 theme.
These sections each have several options. BYU FONTS BYU HEADER BYU GENERAL PAGE BYU FOOTER
You can read the full documentation for the BYU Header & Footer components on these pages: http://2017-components-demo.cdn.byu.edu/ and http://webcommunity.byu.edu/html-5
The Engineering team of web developers around campus that supports the components is on slack. Join the byuweb team (see http://webcommunity.byu.edu/) and go to the #engineering-group channel.
The search in the byu header can be disabled in the header settings. You can also customize how it works. It is using the byu-search component.
If you use the default core search module, it will work out of the box.
You are able to use different search modules (i.e. Custom Search or Google Custom Search). If the search component gets confused finding your search/text input and your button/submit input, the theme has settings provided to tell it specifically which elements to target.
For example, if you use the Custom Search module, you will want to specify:
input[data-drupal-selector="edit-keys"] for the Search Box element
and
input[data-drupal-selector="edit-submit"] for the Search Button element.
These fields take simple css selectors, so if your search module isn't working,
make sure you are using a css selector that will not target multiple divs, and
that will not change. (i.e. id's of these search elements often change once you
start searching or reloading the page.)
Hidden Region
This theme comes with a region that is used purely for referencing the blocks in that region. This is useful in situations such as using a block entity reference field in some content type. Putting the block in the hidden field would allow you to still use the block in that block entity reference field, but it wouldn't appear on the website.
