Yesterday I installed Drupal Commons on http://campus-24.com/. The version was grabbed from http://commons.acquia.com/home, but I am not very sure I have chosen the Drupal Commons installation profile.

In general the installation ends up with the appearance of exactly the same theme that is shown on http://commons.acquia.com/home.

It is pretty interesting that the above mentioned site does not feel/look, and it does not behave as a Commons. In short: The look and feel, and the behavior of the site is totally neurotic! If I look in the administrative area, I have only the following 6 themes in the system to choose between:

  • Bluemarine
  • Chameleon
  • Marvin
  • Garland
  • Minnelli
  • Pushbutton

So I guess there isn't a clear evidence that I have installed the wrong profile, the Drupal standalone installation profile, and not the Commons profile. Where can I have a closer look at which profile is active?

The profile used to install the site is stored in the variable install_profile. There's a few different ways you can see the value:

  • Pop into the variable table in your database and search for install_profile:

    select value from variable where name='install_profile';
    
  • Install the Devel module and visit mysite.com/devel/variable
  • Put this custom code in a template file somewhere:

    <?php print variable_get('install_profile', 'No install profile found.'); ?>
    

Hope that helps
