Magento Blank Starter Design Template (Theme)

This item was filled under [ FREE Magento Templates ]

Here’s a great blank Magento starter template to get you going on creating your own custom Magento design.

The CSS, Layout and Template files are stripped to the core and perfect for developing your own custom Magento template (theme).

This is a great theme to use for wire-framing or as a base for developing a custom Magento theme! A lot of work has gone in to slimming down the HTML and CSS, which makes it much easier to work with compared to the default theme.

How To Use

  • Unzip the downloaded archive (download below).
  • Copy extracted files in to your store directory structure.
  • Navigate to the Magento admin panel (ie.www.mydomain.com/admin), then the Design configuration tab (System » Configuration » Design tab).
  • Select the name of your website from the (Current Configuration Scope) dropdown.
  • In Default (under Themes heading), enter blank and click save config.
  • Remember to disable page caching (System » Cache Management) whilst testing!
  • Have fun!

Futher installation instructions are available on the Magento website.
