part 5: Customizing the look of the resource listing and details

You can change every aspect of the reservation list and reservation details pages, both the presentation and the content. As with other content types in planyo, you do this by changing the default templates. Templates are basically snippets of HTML code although you usually don’t need knowledge of HTML in order to edit them. Planyo lets you use a WYSIWYG editor so you don't have to edit source HTML code, plus in case of repeating/compound templates (as the inner template explained next) you can choose the table view, which lets you specify the number of table columns and then contents of each column. In compound templates you have an outer template and inner template. In this case the outer template is displayed once and in place of a tag: $(resources) the contents of the inner template are inserted once for every resource. The template can also contain a number of other tags, for example the inner template can use tags representing resources, such as $(resource) representing the resource name, or $(reserve_url) which is replaced by the URL of the reservation page for given resource. The full list of tags you can use can be found under each template box.

Once your template is defined, you can also customize the look&feel of the content by modifying the css stylesheet. See more about this in this tutorial.
