Hi,
You can start to create a new skin by copy pasting an already existing
skin, say, albatross. Rename it to say MyNewSkin. Try changing .vm files
and .css files in your new skin. You can see the changes by appending
?skin=MyNewSkin to the url. This will help you in knowing which files to
change to make the look this way that way etc.
Once you have enough familiarity you can create a new skin using the
facilities provided by XWiki itself by creating a page and adding
XWiki.XWikiSkins object to it. This is a very easy process but first you
need familiarity. (http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Skins)
Hope this helps :-)
Regards

Hi,
I'm looking to use xwiki, though would like to do some
custom skins and
templates for my site. I was looking at the various vm
files under the
"templates" directory, though am becoming horribly
confused as to the
flow, page life cycle, and generally how everything is
connected.
Is there some good resources I can read about how
everything fits
together and also possible some sample applications?
I'm not really sure
where to start or even how the main page for xwiki is
being
generated...I tried looking through the xwiki website,
though
customization documentation seems sparse, though I may
have just totally
missed something...thanks in advance...
Thanks,
Josh
