I am trying to understand the big picture of the first level directories under the design dir but I find that the docs don't really address this subject from a high enough level to answer my question. With v3.3-5 under the design dir, I have three dirs... standard, admin, and shop (I installed as shop) With v3.4 beta 2 i get and additional directory called base. I have questions about the basic purposes of these dirs... my guess is that the answer is simple but I don't quite see the relationships. Lets start with standard: MOST of the stuff here appears to be geared toward the admin interface. Is my observation correct? It is ALL related to the admin interface? If so what is the relationship between it and the admin dir (under the design dir). What is in the admin dir which is not in the standard dir? V3.4 beta base dir vs. shop:
These dirs seem to contain duplicate files, some of which appear to be the identical in content.
I assume shop is designed to override the base dir. But if so, why are many of the files in shop, identical (in content) to those in base? Is any of the public facing interface stuff based on or does it refer to anything in the standard dir or (again) is the standard dir strictly for admin. If someone could answer these question and / or provide a general definition of the relationships of the first level of dirs under the design dir...I would be most grateful. Cheers gr
