Hello everyone,

I am currently trying to follow the instructions laid out in the following thread:

http://vbdrupal.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1011

In order to basically make my site look similar to the vbdrupal.org website. My goal is to eventually have my left navigation, header and footer drupal blocks displayed on my forums - giving the appearance that the forum loads within my drupal website.

I have installed the template-modifications manager but have been unsuccessful in getting my changes to take effect. However I am very certain that I am doing something wrong that is likely straightforward for most of you, so can anyone help with my remedial questions?

First I get to this screen - which option do I want?

I've been using the MASTER STYLE one - fyi

Once in there, I grasp the basic concepts here of loading up a template (such as header), however, I don't believe my changes are taking effect. On the following screen ,what exactly do I need to do to make the code changes? I've been making the code appear by clicking 'view template', but from here I'm unsure of what to do to make my code changes take effect. What about naming - does it matter at all? Can anyone please provide step by step instructions on what to do?

Assuming I make the correct code changes, what are my next steps to apply these changes to my website? (pretend you're talking to an idiot

)

Thanks for the help, and sorry for being such a noob :erm:
