Template Modification System
Description
This modification allows easy management of template modifications.
Hack authors can define the necessary template modifications for their products.
When exporting a product, all template modifications assigned to this product
in MASTER style will be embedded into the product XML and imported on the
end-user vBulletin installation automatically if TMS is available.
Alternatively, it is also possible to create separate XML files for template modifications.
This way, 3rd parties can provide Template-Modification XML files for existing hacks.
Hack authors can also export standard template modification instructions as
textfiles to package them with their hacks, which allows users that do not
have TMS to also install them

In case the author defined modifications do not work (eg. the user uses a custom style),
the users can easily customize the modifications for their style(s).

TMS modified templates transparently, e.g. all Templates can still be modified
manually in style manager - they will appear unchanged there.


System Requirements
This Modification requires MySQL 4.1 or higher - it does not work with MySQL 4.0!
If you use MySQL 4.1 series, MySQL 4.1.10 or higher is required

It allows you to make changes to the templates in your forum installation without actually changing the templates themselves!, it's a really cool mod and should have been distributed as a core part of the vbulletin product!

Does it or has it caused problems by affecting any of the preexisting templates or styles that you know of?

I just don't want to jump on the band wagon to find out the drivers drunk

Trust me you wont look back!, it's a fantastic tool, it doesn't interefere with any modifications you've already made to templates and you can make style specific template edits with it, install it and play, it's brilliant!

It won't. Look at the number of installations and at the rating. That's not by chance. You can mess up your site using this tool, just as you can do so by using the template editor. But that's your fault then

Yeah but the beauty of messing your site up with this tool is you can simply delete or turn off the particular template edit you made and hey presto! back to normal
