Re: [Flock-devel] question about customizing flock

[Viktor S. <phr...@us...>]

Hi,

Wow, I'm amazed that someone is actually still using Flock - I haven't
touched it in years :) I guess it still works :)

Unfortunately, there's no way to customize it without rebuilding. The
good news is that for customizing the look-and-feel, you will not need
to touch any java classes, just HTML templates, CSS. These are fairly
clean (they don't have any code), so it should be easy to modify. For
example:

http://flock.cvs.sourceforge.net/flock/flock/src/tapestry/net/sf/flock/webapp/Home.html?revision=1.1&view=markup

http://flock.cvs.sourceforge.net/flock/flock/src/tapestry/net/sf/flock/webapp/components/SubscriptionsTable.html?revision=1.1&view=markup

Hope this helps!

Regards,
  Viktor
