DRUPAL-7: hook declaration missing

Goodmorning everyone,

I'm new in Drupal. I hope don't ask a stupid question. I'm working with Drupal 7 and I need to edit a custom module for my company developed by another developer. This is a piece of code where I use "theme" function. This code is under "sites/all/modules/gestione_attivita_attivita/gestione_attivita_attivita.module"

function gestione_attivita_attivita_block_search_attivita($tipo_ricerca) {

  $block['subject'] = "";

  $ricerca = gestione_attivita_ricerca_fetchAll($tipo_ricerca);

  $block['content'] = theme('ricerca_attivita', array(
    'items' => $ricerca,
    'tipo_ricerca' => $tipo_ricerca
  ));
  return $block; 
}

I know that should exist "ricerca_attivita" hook declared somehere in my files. I'v been looking for something like "['ricerca_attivita'] = array(" or similar words or sub-words in all my files of my site folder but it doesn't exist. The only thing I know is that under :
"sites/all/themes/customModuleOfmyCompany/templates"
there are several tpl files and in particular one called "ricerca_attivita.tpl.php" that work and receives data from theme function but I don't know how this is possible.
I don't know who tell to theme call to go on another folder on another path and use "ricerca_attivita.tpl.php" and not foo.tpl.php for example. Is there anyone that can help me?

Another thing:

Going under includes/theme.inc and debugginng it I have this printing hook info:

array (
  'template' => 'ricerca_attivita',
  'path' => 'sites/all/themes/customtheme/templates',
  'type' => 'theme_engine',
  'theme path' => 'sites/all/themes/customtheme',
  'preprocess functions' => 
  array (
    0 => 'template_preprocess',
    1 => 'contextual_preprocess',
  ),
  'process functions' => 
  array (
    0 => 'template_process',
    1 => 'ctools_process',
    2 => 'rdf_process',
  ),
)

but I don't know who is that declare it

Solution

  • I think you should use the developer module for themers https://www.drupal.org/project/devel_themer

    And about theming function, did you search for this function inside the themes folder?

    Hope that helps.
