Installing modifications are different for each and every modification. Most authors have an install.txt, readme.txt (or some other type) or installation instructions on their modifications. Changing templates are also different per modification.

The second one you upload through the ACP. But the first one you need to post within the thread.

What he's saying is that if you are having difficulties installing a modification, ie. the readme file or instructions in the thread aren't clear, then you need to post in the modification thread for help/clarification. That is the best place to get help with the modification since they know the modification best.

As Lynne stated, you post within the modification thread as they should know their modification the best.

The vBulletin Manual is a very useful resource.
