thanks firefly. now since we are here talking about replacements, can anyone explain to me if vbulletin.style is needed in the /admin folder? the way i see it me to fix this problem is to have VB export the templates database contents to a similar file like vbulletin.style. then all we have to do is create a code addon in template.php that will grab that file and update the template table.
i did this so far, but i dont know how to import from the database all template data in the vbulletin.style format. maybe firefly can release a little addon to his TBS?
