Hello all

I'd like to install a new skin. Tell me, if I do, can I revert back to the current one I have? Is it simple? And second, when I install the skin, will I lose any of the template changes I've made so far?

Thanks

Whenever you import a new style, it exists in parallel to any others you have; that is, it and your other styles don't have any effect on one another.

As such, yes, you'll lose any changes you made to your first template -- they'll have to be reapplied manually to the new style.

Administrators by default have a Quick Style Chooser dropdown in the lower left-hand corner of the forum through which you can choose to view the forum using any installed styles.

You can easily change your default style through the vBulletin Options -> Styles & Language Settings menu.

Hey thanks. Very fast, very helpful. That's not too scary - think I'll take the plunge!
