Hi folks,
I have tons and tons of custom template just like probably most of u have on ur baord. One of my nightmare wud be to mess up/delete the custom template or parent template and having no backup to restore with.

It would be REALLY cool to have a mod which would backup ur template frm skins/styles and restore when needed.

:rolleyes:


just a thot for a mod when ur bored :)

This is still all backed up when you download the styles. So if you download a style you are backing up all templates including any modified ones.

lol.. yeah thats rite.. but come'on im sure most forums use custom created templates!!... for portal stuff.. for internal modification.. and addons.

How about a mod... that will
1. backup all my templates...custom and modified - BOTH
2. from the default/parent/selected style
3. Store it some place.. in database or on a file (that i can download...watever)

4. if I loose all or some or 1 .. of my templates.. then i can run the mod to restore it back to that particular style

addon idea.
templates are backed up automatically each time a change is made to them.

1. ANY TEMPLATE THAT HAS BEEN CHANGED IS CUSTOM - they are backed up
2. YOU CAN DO THAT ITS CALLED AN OPTION
3. DOES THAT TOO :D
4. WHOA IT ALSO DOES THAT!
