What is theming?
The short answer is that theming is the process of making a site your own.
CMS-driven websites take reusable pieces of data and put them together to create each page. This keeps the site consistent and makes it easy for non-developers to manage the content, but the standard layouts are very generic and bland. To make a dynamic site exciting and unique, special attention and effort need to go into theming.
Theming pulls together the graphic designer's vision, the content requirements, and the CMS programming. Done well, this allows the site to have the best of all worlds…
- a look and feel that is both consistent and unique
- an exciting user experience
- an easy-to-maintain, versatile website that grows with the organization
