Theme type in templates (and not only)

[nmpetkov]

I am working on responsive theme, and need to get specific information about the theme - if the theme is responsive or not. Currently I use a ugly solution, checking if displayname contains string 'bootstrap'.

After exploring the code from Zikula 1.2 to Zikula 1.4, I found, that now two fields (columns) in theme table are not in use:
type
xhtml
(historically they was in use, but not after Zikula 1.2)

I propose one of them to be used for that purpose. It seems type is more suitable, as xhtml can be used in future to specify which HTML standards are followed in the theme (for example HTML5 can be one option).

The problem is addressed for both Zikula 1.3 and 1.4 branches.

I don't see a systematic solution for this until 2.0.0

perhaps something like modules have a 'capabilities' key in the meta array.

Somewhen modules and themes will be merged. Then themes could reuse the capabilities field....

refs #3644

The xhtml property has been removed.

Moving this issue to 3.0.0 because it refs #3644.

wondering whether this has become a "won't fix"

1. @nmpetkov asked for 1.3 and 1.4
2. all themes are responsive today, aren't they?
3. I don't see the use case (anymore)

@nmpetkov do you still have an opinion about this?

[nmpetkov]

As 1.3 is not supported anymore, the issue is better to close.
