Add templates and phrases for the product?

[zanthor]

From the vbulletin manual (http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/creating_a_product) on how to create a product I can't find any documentation on step 3...

3. Add templates and phrases for the product?

I've created a plugin, I've got that associated with the product, but it depends on 3 templates and one CSS I created to function... I'd like to include those in the product, but cannot figure out how to associate them so they export all together...

Thanks,

For the CSS I believe you would need to replicate that into a StyleVar. I'm not sure what is involved in creating a new one though.

As for the templates, when creating a new template in the template manager, you would specify what product it belongs to. Then when you export your product, your template(s) will be included in the xml file.

Adding a new template I have the following fields associated:

• Style
• Title
• Template
• Search in template
• Save in template history
• comment

Nothing about which product... am I going about this wrong? (AdminCP->Styles&Templates->Style Manager->Add new template)

Yep you're looking in the right place.. See the attachment below for clarification:

I've created a product and that option is certainly not there... is there something magical to getting it to show up?

Try putting your site in debug mode. Add the following line to the bottom of your forumroot/includes/config.php file.

PHP Code:


$config['Misc']['debug'] = 1;

Thats it...

Have to add it to the master style as well it appears.

I'll setup my dev environment and .htaccess protect that bastard before doing more work.

Thanks!

Thanks to this I placed my template on master style and now it works.
Also the option for the product appears only when its a master style.

Everything is tricky with vb4

Actually, it's been like this since it was first introduced.

How can I display the master style templates without setting it everything to debug?
