in Q2A Core by

Hello All,

I have ported Twitter Bootstrap to Q2A v1.5.3

Download it from GitHub: https://github.com/harshjv/q2a-bootstrap

Though it requires some core files to be modified, you have to first back up your current installation.

Other instructions found on GitHub, I have provided Readme.md

Here are some screen shot of it:

Looks pretty good! The only thing I don't like is all the coloured backgrounds on the "meta" info, i.e. "asked 19 minutes ago by username", looks quite bad with each phrase having different backgrounds.

Looks good. Shame it modifies the core though - which is something I try to avoid. ;-(

Nice work!

But instead of shaming you for modifying core files, I'd better try draw Gideon's (the author of Q2A) attention to the BIG problem - it is impossible to make a really good custom theme for Q2A without modifying core files!

There are a lot of HTML rendering being done in the core and you can't change it without hacking inside. I'd like to make a proposition, that ALL HTML should be rendered as a part of theme. Basic HTML rendering, that is being thought as common for all themes and is rendered within a core now, should be refactored as ViewHelpers (or at the simpliest case as a part of qa_theme_base class), that can be easily overridden by theme creator.

Is that still the case in 1.6.2?

I don't know. I'm still on my own fork of 1.5.4 because of that :(
