Converting WordPress themes to Drupal6?

Question

i've seen that Drupal6 has a really poor set of themes compared to, for example, Wordpress ... do you know good resources/links for converting WP themes to D6?

Thanks in advance, c.

Answer 1

The book Front End Drupal: Designing, Theming, Scripting includes a few pages that do a very good job of explaining the basics of converting a Wordpress themes to Drupal 6 themes.

Alternatively, the following links may also help:

• Convert a Word Press theme to Drupal
• How to Create a Drupal Theme / Convert Wordpress Theme into Drupal 6.x Theme

Answer 2

Also check out the WP Theme module for Drupal 6. It's currently under development, but provides implementations of the common theme functions used in WordPress themes, mapping them to Drupal equivalents. That allows you to use a fair number of WordPress themes directly.
