Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
This release mainly addresses the JS errors that were introduced due to the requirement of JQuery 3 in Drupal 8.4. Thanks to all who helped out with this release.
Basic is ready for Drupal 8! As with pervious versions, Basic's goal is to provide themers the building blocks needed to get their designs up and running quickly and simply. Basic is perfect if you want a simple, smart, and flexible theme starter.
On top of making Basic compatible with Drupal 8's new Twig theme engine, additional features and improvements include:
Bug fixes and updates for grunt modules
- fixed problem with imagemin hanging when adding new files to the source directory
- updated grunt, grunt-contrib-concat, grunt-contrib-uglify, grunt-notify, grunt-contrib-imagemin, grunt-contrib-watch, grunt-spritesmith, and grunt-autoprefixer
- Bug fixes for layout.sass
- Updates to Bourbon and Bourbon neat to remove errors.
- *NEW* grunt processing framework. If you'd like to use grunt for compiling your sass, compressing images and creating sprites navigate to the grunt folder in your command line and type "grunt watch".
Basic boasts a clean HTML5 structure with extensible CSS classes and ID's for unlimited theming possibilities as well as a top-down load order for improved SEO. It is fully responsive out-of-the-box and provides an adaptive, elegant, SASS based grid system (Bourbon Neat).

- more classes (done in a better way)
- Skinr support
- better, simpler styles

Basic has now a better, more standard way to insert classes in comments and blocks. This was done when adding Skinr support ! If you don't know about Skinr, try it out, it rocks !
- Simplified template.php : no need for edit links in blocks
- Added contextual styles and code in block template
- Removed main block template
- Revised theme settings
- Improved print styles
- Updated info file
- Revised code for main and secondary links
- Updates on layout
Not adding html.tpl.php for now, to keep it simple. Might stay that way, what do you think ?
General update on latest changes of drupal 7, especially theme settings (now form alter).
Added some styles for messages.
Will include html.tpl.php in next RC (I know it should only be an ALPHA, but I got mixed up :( )
- fixed multiple bugs due to block edit links
- Rearange main / secondary menu
- moved templates files to a subfolder
- added template for Content (block-system-main.tpl.php)
-->> no longer stable on latest DEV of Drupal 7 - use DEV version
Due to Drupal 7 change of markup, the region "sidebar-left" and "sidebar-right" have been renamed to "sidebar-first" and "sidebar-second". Make sure you update your CSS. These change have been back-ported to Drupal 6 (2.6)
After releasing the new version of basic for Drupal 7, some improvments are now backported to D6. Also some formating fixes, some CSS improvements and simplification, and a new feature : now you can choose f you want to use the Zen tabs directly from the theme settings page.
Still no great documentation... I know, we stink :(
*** EDIT ***
I forgot to attach a file, and BETA 2 shows packaging errors... Until I fix this, you can download the missing file here : http://www.couzinhub.com/files/theme-settings.php.zip
Just add this file to the 'basic' theme folder
This is the first release of BASIC for Drupal 7. It mostly port all the functionnalities that were on D6 to D7.
- Moving the image folder into the CSS folder. That makes a cleaner theme folder and also avoid adding ../ in css image references.
- Some updates on colors and wireframes styles, improved from Zen imho :)
- Adding taxonomy classes to body classes thanks to [heyyo] suggestion #[479774]
