Organize your templates!
 

If you're like me, you like to try to keep your board as organized as possible. Which, is why the following little tip comes in handy for hacks that add a dozen or so custom templates. (ie. vBindex, v3arcade, etc..)

In includes/adminfunctions_template.php:

Find:
Add BELOW:
Change "XXprefixXX" to whatever the template prefixes are, for example, the Arcade templates all begin with "arcade", so, you would put "arcade" as the prefix.

Change "XXtitleXX" to what you want the category to be called, don't add "Templates" to the name, because vB will do that for you. For example, if you put "arcade" as the title, it will read "Arcade Templates" in the Edit Templates section.

Get it? Good. :)

Err.. this should be in Modification Hints and Tips, could a moderator please move it for me? :)

Although technically it is a mini-mod as well, heh. ;)

Ahh, now it looks less painful to see all those templates. Thanks! ^_^

Wow, beautiful tip there!

As my wife says, so small, but damn it's so usefull!!!

/me clicks install

that.... that sounds wrong man. o.O; I blame my perverted mind, yet I know what you mean...... but still *shivers*

That's a great tip. I have definately found it useful and think this step should be added to any hack with multiple new templates.

Fine mod!

Been looking for a way to accomplish this, now i found it :D
