![]() Lots of people want to edit their templates, but have no idea which one is which. Here are some tips on identifying what the template is for: Groups All Templates are grouped, with a name. This is the first step of identifying what template you want. For an example there is a "Forum Home" Template group. In this group this is all the forumhome templates which make up the main forum page. The Actual Template This is where it can get tricky. There isn't just one template for one page, there are a few! For example lets say you want to edit the Last Post By template for forumhome to change that. Usually the template name can give you an idea like for this example the template is named 'forumhome_lastpostby'. Some aren't so easy. So it's good if you take some time to identify the code in each template for future reference. Editing Templates For templates that haven't been edited beside the name it will show "Change Original". For templates that have been previously edited it will show "Edit" to edit the actual template and "Remove" which will turn the template back into default, NOT remove it. When editing, please use mashby's save your templates tip. That comes in handy. Hope this helps a few people. ![]() No members have liked this post.

not all related templates may be contained within a group, as grouping is only done alphabetically.
