Default best way to remove template edits

Hi All

i am at the stage where i now know what i want from my forum and i really need to start the edits etc from scratch but i have coe to realise that i dont know where a load of the edits were. i was making them step by step in the admincp reading instructions on screen.

i didnt keep a record of them or anythign liek that and i can only remember so many.

My question is if i click revert all templates in style part of admincp will that remove all of the edits i have made completely? including any edits made by plugins etc.

I am only just learning my way around hooks etc and from what i understand plugins that use hooks to display items will be untopuched by reverting templates. it will only be the individual template edits i made which will be changed.

Is this correct?

for an example at some point i added support for youtube videos by editing various templates etc and adding a [yt] bbcode tag into the post wysiwyg so there is a little YT logo just above which adds tags around ta youtube embed url.

I obviously no longer need this as some bright spark has made the non template edit versions that supports all videos and there is no need for it anymore. but i can remember where the edits were made??

So can i just revert all the templates and go back to zero and start again and is there anything i should be aware of when i am doing that before id do it? ie any checks to make first

For a lot of the plugins when you remove them it also deletes the template edits. For the others, what I usually do is re-read the install instructions and look for what they told you to add... then I remove it. Basically by working backwards.

I don't know of an easier way to do this.

You can see which templates are edited because they are highlighted in a different color than the rest - red or orange (if it is a child). If you select to edit one of the 'red' templates, there is an Edit History button in the upper left. Click on it and you will be able to compare your template to the default template. Then you can see exactly what was changed.
