Create a new Magento theme

There are many new Magento stores that are published each day. If you are with Magento for a longer time, you will also notice that many of those look similar to default or modern Magento theme.

Magento upgrade and broken templates

2nd AUG 2008 | Posted by Branko Ajzele in MVC, Programming

Few days ago I had a task of upgrading Magento ver. 1.0.19870.1 to Magento ver. 1.1.1. When you are doing something like that on your own development machine, you probably don’t care much about backing up your database and installation folder. On my development machine I had a clean install of version 1.0.19870.1 where I merely entered few products, categories and other minor things. I had no other theme besides custom one. Before I was ready to do a update to real, shared, remote development machine I decided to test the update on my machine.

Performing local update went smoothly as it gets. On my surprise, everything work as it should be. I was convinced I can go and make upgrade to remote development machine. I had no SVN setup to my remote machine so all my code transfer was done trough FTP. Basically if you’re performing your upgrade trough full archive file all you need to do is copy content from archive to your root Magento installation and overwrite everything you’re asked to overwrite. Sound’s easy, doesn’t it? Well it is easy and your upgrade should go clean and without any glitch, that is if you are using built in theme. If you’re using a custom made theme, chances are you’re rune into trouble like i did. Read more
