"correct" way to include a custom template?

I'm not sure I understand... I guess I'm a little ignorant to the vbulletin architecture...

I prefer templates as opposed to hard coding the blocks into each page for edibility... Are you suggesting there is an easier more efficient way to do this whilst maintaining the edibility? Thanks.

I realized that after posting, is there a way to request a mod move the thread or should I just repost?
