AFTER READING THE FIRST POST FOR THE THIRD TIME I AM STILL VERY CONFUSSED ON WHAT THIS DOES BESIDES HELP WHEN YOU DO UPDATES SO YOU DONT HAVE TO DO THE TEMPLET MODS AGAIN. WHERE IS THE XML FILES I NEED SO I DONT HAVE TO MOD THE TEMPLET'S? ARE THE XML FILES THAT DO THE TEMPLET MODS FOR YOU THE XML FILE YOU UPLOAD VIA THE PLUGIN AND PRODUCTS MANGE PRODUCTS UPLOAD? ( SORRY ABOUT THE CAPS JUST RELIZED THEY WERE ON) sorry again! can someone please explain my questions to me please!

basically you inport a product as normal, as you always have
the TMS then does the $find $replace for you if someone has already implented a TMS based product

the TMS also allows you do do template edits without having to go directly into the main template and edit it, TMS will do any $find & replace $add as long as it find the peace of code you put into the criteria boxes

how will i know if some one has already implented a TMS based product????

Most authors will state if their modification supports TMS. TMS will also help confirm if those templates were indeed added and if they work with your version.

where will they state it in the mod description or where else can this be found??? sorry for all the questions this mod just confusses me. im reading and reading and getting nowhere. i have only been doing this for 2 weeks so im a newbie at this sorry!!!!!!!!!!!!!
see even this confusses me can some talk to me and help a nebie out im more than willing to pay through paypal forthe help

Strange, when I go to edit template I get to this page and I can't do anything unless I disable TMS.

See screenshot:

if a developer is using TMS with their MODS

they will have to state in the requirements of the MOD description that TMS is required
also some mods will put TMS as a requirement to install the MOD and will come up with an error to say "TMS is required to install this MOD" this will appear when you attempt to install and halt coz you don't have the requirements
also within Admincp > settings [MOD name]
they will display an "enable" or "Disable" to use the TMS to auto insert the code

TMS should never be required to install a mod. You can do everything TMS does by manual template edits, too, and TMS even offers to print template edit instructions. All my addons support TMS, but I always also give the instructions for manual template edits.

any update?

Installed, let me check how it works.
