Hello,

I have been using a free bb for years. I decided to make the switch to VB. In the other bb system there was a template folder for me to go and make adjustments. I am trying to find a similar thing in VB where i go to make adjustments on templates. For instance, I am currently trying to install the MGC Chatbox and I am at the point where it says In the forumhome template find this and add this. I just cant find the forumhome template. I also have a template installed that I will need to make the adjustments in.

Sorry, I have tried to find this already answered...thre is just alot..and I coudlnt find it.

So please, where are the styles/themes stored where I can make the edits?

Thanks
Adam

vBulletin stores its templates in the database .. you can access the templates via Admincp / Style Manager
For those who do not understand..
Need help in understading what a template system is?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
