Public MT design templates?

Vote 0 Votes

*,

this is somehow off-topic but there's no other forum for this discussion. I'm searching for public MT design templates or repositories other than the defaults in MT4.0.

I discovered the site http://www.thestylearchive.com which seemed to have had some good 'styles'. But the site is broken, I cannot browse or download the styles. Adding the repository to the StyleCatcher plugin works but doesn't show any templates to choose from.

Do you know some other repositories?

Best regards, Matthias

  • I would agree, that this seems severely lacking. Anyone else know anything about MT4.0 style repositories (or even styles at all)?

  • The stylearchive is broken, and we are working on getting it back up.

    Unfortunately however the styles contained there are not compatible with 4.x.

  • Any progress on getting a style archive for 4.x?

  • http://www.codemonkeyramblings.com/themes/ is my themes blog. I converted a lot of WordPress styles to Movable Type styles. The only catch is that you'll need to download the archive at the top of the page and upload it to me/mt-static/themes and unzip it there. Why? WordPress designers tend to use some really big images, ones that trip a security mechanism in StyleCatcher. I can post instructions on how to patch that behavior to override it, but for now, the styles on that page will have to be installed manually to make sure you get them right.

If you need to share template code, replace all the "<" signs with "&lt;" or use this utility.
