Nah, what this mod does is allow you to create changes to your templates without going into each style and making the changes manually. saving the changes when you upgrade and continuing to apply them. It allows you to test each of the mods you make to the templates to see if they work, and continues to apply them after upgrade without even one change. It does it wonderfully.

I was able to upgrade in 3.x version after version without all the template revert, change. When making changes you simply go to the Master Template this mod adds, you go to the template you are going to change, you add the code it looks for select the "add after" "add before" "delete" "replace" selection and put in the changed code below.

This then goes into all the styles, and makes the changes on the fly without even one iota of speed degradation. This keeps your styles templates clean and unchanged entirely, making upgrades within the same vbulletin platform very easy.

I'm not talking about style migration from 3.x to 4.x. This functionality does not exist in 4.x any more than it has in any previous versions of vbulletin.

This mod is definitely worth it, especially if you add mods often.
