The terminology does not seem intuitive?

How do Styles and Templates differ? What is a "Replacement"?

When I get a Style/template/skin pack, where do the files go, how do I tell vB to use them?

Guess phpBB made it look to simple? Was doing OK ther, but came to vB for all the other great features.

A style is overview colour, table properties, CSS etc of the forum. Templates are where you can edit every apperance of anything on the forum (and I mean everything)


A replacement is a great feature for a 'Find and Replace' on your forum. Say if you have certain code that you want to use over and over again, you can add a replacement to say:
Find this code

<b>something</b><br />

and turn into

{something}
