PHP template design |
I often get templates to be integrated in to some php script or site. I keep on asking my self the best way to integrate a script to an existing template.
Different sites use different techniques to manage the site design. However a well planned site design if considered at the beginning then it helps in future expansions. Today's successful websites were not the same sites when they have started some years back. Over a period modification and improvements changes the website. Web sites what we develop today is going to help us tomorrow to match our new requirements.
Here are some points to consider while adding or design a template for a script.
-
Managing site wide banner ads and text link ads from a single file
-
Managing top banner and my site logo at a common point to give uniform look and feel through out the site
-
Every page should have its own body, title and meta tags. So these pages should have there own details for search engines. ( not the common ones for the total site )
-
I should have one common file to store my left side or footer links. So if I add one new page then its link should be added to all the pages of that section. So the link file having all the links should be connected to all my content files.
-
My content files should be separated from my template files so I can easily change template files without fiddling the main files.
Here is the code I maintain explaining all the parts here.
