WEC Template Developers Manual

Section 1: Installing & Using a WEC Template Package

For information on obtaining a WEC template package, installing templates, and changing templates, please refer to "Section 1: Template Installation" of the WEC Template Users Manual.

Note that the WEC Templates rely on the use of external templates for the following extensions:  

  • Searchbox for Indexed Search Engine “macina_searchbox” 

  • News “tt_news” 

Their template HTML can be found in Appendix IV. 

Section 2: Developing Templates for WEC

2.1 Requirements: HTML and CSS

  • The HTML template should contain the WEC Copyright Notice in the header code of the HTML and CSS (see Appendix III). 

  • In order for easier maintenance, it is recommended that the markup be commented where possible, including the CSS document, Typoscript, and HTML documents. 

  • TemplaVoila is the recommended templating tool for WEC TYPO3 websites, and is what this documentation has been based on.
