So far, I have not bee overly impressed by the templates available, and I am curious to see what challenges face me in designing unique sites with this software. *smiles*
i have followed all your steps but the new template doesnt show in my admin panel under advanced settings drop box....could you please check it out and tell me how can it be done?
just follow the below steps,
Copy the template folder into the /template folder of your root folder.
Modify the following files inside the template that you have pasted,
1) BxTemplConfig.php
\tmpl_sample\scripts\ BxTemplConfig.php
Change the following lines.
line no 39:
$site['images'] = $site['url'] . "templates/tmpl_sample/images/";
line no 40:
$site['zodiac'] = "templates/tmpl_sample/images/zodiac/";
line no 41:
$site['icons'] = $site['url'] see more
did u changed the template name?
if yes, change the name of your template name in the above specified files instead of 'sample'.
if not check whether u r getting the template naem 'sample' in the dropdown of the advance settings in the admin panel.
Thank you
first i copied the original uni file and did the specified mods you said with no problem. i called it templ_test. then i also uploaded two different templates with there own names in the files, so i didnt think it was necessary to change them. maybe im see more
