Updating parent templates won't always update child...

[Dark_Sirius]

Why is it that sometimes when I edit a parent template, the child templates won't update, but sometimes they will.

Will the parent only update the child if the template you are editing has not been modified in the child?

If so, how do I return this back around so the parent will always update the child? I have 5 skins installed, each with four (4) children. As much as I like to edit 25 templates (not!) to make a simple change, I would rather edit 5 and have the children get updated.

Ideas?

p.s. Sorry if this is in the wrong section, I really wasn't sure where to post this.

Thanks!

Can anyone fix my confusion? :)

Changes made to a parent style will only be inherited if the child template has not been modified.

So I noticed. :D I ended up recreating all the child styles from the parent. Fixed my issue. Didn't take long and it'll save me time in the future. Thanks for the response!
