# AdminLTE Documentation Current version 2.0

#### Warning!

This documentation is under development. Some information may change as the template goes through different pre-releases.

#### Heads Up!

The current AdminLTE 2.0 version is in its Beta stage and should not be used in production. It's however available for testing and to get developers familiar with the new syntax.

## Introduction

AdminLTE is a popular open source WebApp template for admin dashboards and control panels. It is a responsive HTML template that is based on the CSS framework Bootstrap 3. It utilizes all of the Bootstrap components in its design and re-styles many commonly used plugins to create a consistent design that can be used as a user interface for backend applications. AdminLTE is based on a modular design, which allows it to be easily customized and built upon. This documentation will guide you through installing the template and exploring the various components that are bundled with the template.

## Download

AdminLTE can be downloaded in two different versions, each appealing to different skill levels and use case.

## A Word of Advice

Before you go to see your new awesome theme, here are few tips on how to familiarize yourself with it:

- AdminLTE is based on Bootstrap 3. If you are unfamiliar with Bootstrap, visit their website and read through the documentation. All of Bootstrap components have been modified to fit the style of AdminLTE and provide a consistent look throughout the template. This way, we guarantee you will get the best of AdminLTE.
- Go through the pages that are bundled with the theme. Most of the template example pages contain quick tips on how to create or use a component which can be really helpful when you need to create something on the fly.
- Documentation. We are trying our best to make your experience with AdminLTE be smooth. One way to achieve that is to provide documentation and support. If you think that something is missing from the documentation, please do not hesitate to create an issue to tell us about it. Also, if you would like to contribute, email the support team at support@almsaeedstudio.com.
- Built with LESS. This theme uses the LESS compiler to make it easier to customize and use. LESS is easy to learn if you know CSS or SASS. It is not necessary to learn LESS but it will benefit you a lot in the future.
- Hosted on GitHub. Visit our GitHub repository to view issues, make requests, or contribute to the project.

Note: LESS files are better commented than the compiled CSS file.

## Layout

The layout consists of four major parts:

- Wrapper `.wrapper`. A div that wraps the whole site.
- Main Header `.main-header`. Contains the logo and navbar.
- Sidebar `.sidebar-wrapper`. Contains the user panel and sidebar menu.
- Content `.content-wrapper`. Contains the page header and content.

#### Tip!

Use the blank example page located in pages/examples/blank.html to build your own pages.

### Layout Options

AdminLTE 2.0 provides a set of options to apply to your main layout. Each on of these classes can be added to the body tag to get the desired goal.

- Fixed: use the class `.fixed` to get a fixed header and sidebar.
- Collapsed Sidebar: use the class `.collapsed-sidebar` to have a collapsed sidebar upon loading.
- Boxed Layout: use the class `.layout-boxed` to get a boxed layout that stretches only to 1024px.
- Top Navigation use the class `.layout-top-nav` to remove the sidebar and have your links at the top navbar.

Note: you cannot use both layout-boxed and fixed at the same time. Anything else can be mixed together.

### Skins

Skins can be found in the dist/css/skins folder. Choose and the skin file that you want then add the appropriate class to the body tag to change the template's appearance. Here is the list of available skins:

- `skin-blue`
- `skin-yellow`
- `skin-purple`
- `skin-green`
- `skin-red`
- `skin-black`

## Components

#### Reminder!

AdminLTE uses all of Bootstrap 3 components. It's a good start to review the Bootstrap documentation to get an idea of the various components that this documentation does not cover.

#### Tip!

If you go through the example pages and would like to copy a component, right-click on the component and choose "inspect element" to get to the HTML quicker than scanning the HTML page.

### Main Header

The main header contains the logo and navbar. Construction of the navbar differs slightly from Bootstrap because it has components that Bootstrap doesn't provide. The navbar can be constructed in two way. This an example for the normal navbar and next we will provide an example for the top nav layout.

Main Header Example

## FAQ

### Can AdminLTE be used with Wordpress?

AdminLTE is an HTML template that can be used for any purpose. However, it is not made to be easily installed on Wordpress. It will require some effort and enough knowledge of the Wordpress script to do so.

### Is there an integration guide for PHP frameworks such as Yii or Symphony?

Short answer, no. However, there are forks and tutorials around the web that provide info on how to integrate with many different frameworks. There are even versions of AdminLTE that are integrated with jQuery ajax, AngularJS and/or MVC5 ASP .NET.

### How do I get notified of new AdminLTE versions?

The best option is to subscribe to our mailing list using the subscription form on Almsaeed Studio. If that's not appealing to you, you may watch the repository on Github or visit Almsaeed Studio every now and then for updates and announcements.
