Monster Templates to OSCMax

[ALElder]

Does any one have a guide to change an OSC template to OSCMax templates?

I don't want to downgrade to the old OSC please help.

Thanks,

Adam

Compare your template to a STOCK MS2 version and mark/comment ALL CHANGES.

If the only changes are graphics and CSS - copy the graphics over and merge the CSS. Done!

If there is alot of PHP changes - look in the same file name or the one with .tpl.php . If in /fallback/*.tpl.php - copy the file to your template directory and only modify that file. Merge in the changed.

Note: Using a file compare tool HELP ALOT!

What file compare tool should I use.

Also still don't understand how would I make the new (main_page.tpl.php) from the index.php

Thanks,

Winmerge (free) or my fave Beyond Compare (has 30 day trial - but still inexpensive).


No need to "make" main_page.tpl.php from index.php.

Most of your main page content can be edited from within the admin interface.

See the fully fuctioning demo at www.configurethat.com\demo\admin

If your using an WYSIWYG editor to customize your site then copy the files you want to edit from the fallback template to your LIVE template directory.

If need be drop me a line.
