Drupal acquia-marina theme woes

October 1, 2008 – 9:38 pm

I’m sure a lot of people have been testing the new Drupal acquia marina theme. I just tried to install it on a 6.4 site, and it’s not working out so well. On a fresh install, it works just fine, but for my existing site, it’s coughing with “Fatal error: Call to undefined function taxonomy_get_vocabularies() /Users/overthis/Sites/icf/sites/all/themes/acquia_marina/template.php on line 339. So, I can only get to the admin section of the site now. All other areas give that error.

By commenting out the whole Taxonomy section of the template.php file, I can navigate to the rest of the site. It’s a quick fix, but it’s definitely not a long term one.

Hmm, turning on the taxonomy module has made the error go away, so I guess it’s a requirement.

The result … http://www.intervarsityicf.org

Although I’m a Mac user, I don’t actively check Safari all the time, but I did notice that my table elements were showing up as rather bold. They look fine in Firefox, and inspecting the css with Firebug didn’t show anything odd. I made the boldness go away by adding a “font-weight: normal” to the td at line 1448 of the style.css file. I guess somewhere it must have picked up a heavier font weight.

Addendum - 11/29/08: It’s been almost two months since installing Acquia, and everything has worked out fine.
