EDU: A free web template for schools

By Jeeremie. Posted in HTML / CSS

I finally got some time to create a new web template this weekend. This work was entirely aimed towards schools and educational sites in general.

Demo:

Download:

Download (306.7 KiB, 2,277 hits)

Features:

  • Google search form.
  • Contact page (PHP form) with spam check.
  • Back to top buttons.
  • Drop down menu with transparent background.

Installation:

  1. Download and unzip the file
  2. Copy all the files to your root Directory

Usage:

  1. Open each page in your web editor (e.g. Notepad) and locate the search form. Change the value line 84: value=”web-kreation.com”. Put your domain name instead.
  2. Open contact.php in your web editor and change the email address line 145:
    $to = 'yourname@domain.com';
  3. Remove the Google ads in the sidebar and replace it by your own.

What’s coming next?

First, I will post a new tutorial explaining how to modify the EDU template header in Fireworks. I want to give you the possibility to easily change the header image and colors to match your site.

Second, I am now coding a Wordpress theme based on the EDU template. Here’s a screenshot:

The release is expected before the end of this month or beginning of the next.
