Creating a mod

[Taragon]

Hello,

I recently made some template modifications to a default style.
Now I would like to release these modifications as a product (xml file including a bunch of pictures)

I’ve never done this before, could anyone perhaps explain where to start?

Best regards,

Cor

Are these new templates or did you modify existing default templates?

Hi Marco,

In this case existing default templates (for this release)

Also, I'm planning to do some changes on the vB Blog product, again existing default templates; would it matter it's a seperate product here?

You should never distribute default templates with a product. Doing so would overwrite them in the MASTERSTYLE and it will be impossible to revert to the default version.

You do not want to edit/publish changes in the MATERSTYLE. Instead create a new style, edit the templates you need, and export it as a Style.

It is always best just to tell users the template edits in a README file or in your modification post. Then they also know how to remove it if they want to uninstall your modification.
