On the "Template Style Setting" page, enter a header height in the "Header height" option, a footer height in the "Footer height" option. The theme will add paddings according to those options on top for header, bottom for footer. You can put your own header/footer in "header.html"/"footer.html" in the "lib/tbl/readthedokus/" directory. 121 122#### 1. Set header/footer height in "Template Style Settings" #### 123 124These values must be valid CSS values. 125 126e.g. "50px" 127 128#### 2. Create header.html/footer.html #### 129 130Create a file "header.html"/"footer.html" under (DokuWiki folder)/lib/tpl/readthedokus/. 131 132Here is a sample header.html. This example also shows how to toggle a sidebar. Clicking the string "Header" toggles the sidebar. 133 134``` 135<div onclick="toggleMenu();">Header</div> 136<style> 137header > div { 138 background-color: khaki; 139 position: fixed; 140 height: 50px; 141 left: 0; 142 top: 0; 143 right: 0; 144} 145</style> 146<script> 147function toggleMenu() 148{ 149 dokus.toggleSidebar(); 150} 151</script> 152``` 153 154You might want to hide a mobile menu since both the sticky header and the mobile menu are displayed at the same time on mobile devices. To hide the mobile menu add below to the CSS file (DokuWiki folder)/conf/userall.css 155 156``` 157#mobileheader { 158display: none; 159} 160``` 161 162### Centering the Content ### 163 164To center the content, enter the content width in the "Site width" option on the "Template Style Settings". 165 166### Include Hooks ### 167 168The theme has some include-hooks. 169 170``` 171+--------------------------------------------------+ 172| [1] | 173+-------------+------------------------------------+ 174| Title | Docs > Page Title | 175|( )| [6] | 176| [2] | ---------------------------------- | 177+-------------+ | 178| [3] | | 179| | | 180| | | 181| | | 182| | | 183| | | 184| | | 185| | | 186| | | 187| [4] | <Previous Next> | 188+-------------+ | 189| [5] | [7] | 190+-------------+------------------------------------+ 191| [8] | 192+--------------------------------------------------+ 193 194 195[1] ... header.html 196[2] ... sidebarheader.html 197[3] ... sidebartop.html 198[4] ... sidebarbottom.html 199[5] ... sidebarfooter.html 200[6] ... pageheader.html 201[7] ... pagefooter.html 202[8] ... footer.html 203``` 204
