Vitaly Potyarkin 18996a6c1d Enable alternative themes for Bootstrap (e.g. Boostwatch) Alchemy is a great theme, but it was not using the full potential of underlying technology. Bootstrap provides an easy way to customize look and feel of rendered pages, and a lot of themes for Bootstrap are freely available, e.g. at <https://boostwatch.com> This commit introduces a new configuration variable BOOTSTRAP_CSS to make use of any existing Bootstrap skins. All incompatibilities in `theme.css` were fixed: - Instead of using constant color values we use Bootstrap css variables for colors: <https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.3/getting-started/theming/#css-variables> - The only hardcoded color value left is the color for header/footer borders. It was moved into a variable `--alchemy-border` for easier overriding if needed. I have tested the current value against both dark and light Boostwatch themes, it works ok. - Pagination template was slightly changed to avoid producing invisible text with some of Bootstrap skins		2019-09-18 17:52:08 +03:00
