Template Setup

[dman]

Hi,

We have created a template set that we are very happy with. We are now getting ready to start creating 50 keyword blogs per domain, and have created a CPANEL reseller account, and uploaded TBS3 into the SKELS (pulbic_html) directory, set the permissions etc, so that whenever this reseller adds a new domain to the system, TBS3 will be ready to install, without constantly FTPing.

Now for my question. We only want to use our template, not the defaults, not the predefined, not the blues, redish etc.

We would like to know what we need to remove and add into the SKELS (public_html) directory, so that when new accounts are added, and TBS3 is installed, the pre-defined templates will be all based on our modified template and the only templates that will show, will be our 1 template (without the system supplied blue, red, chocolate etc).

I tried removing these folders out of the template directory and also add our signal template. Also replace the default with our new template. When we tested an install, we found our template was present, but the predefined were the default (system templates that come with TBS) and the other 3 templates were present as well.

As we are about to do this over and over for about 3000 domains, we want to get this sorted before we go on this assault. Any informative advise on this would be most appreciated. Cheers - DMAN

I hope i understood exactly what you want to do.

First, delete the default templates names from the /templates/ directory. You cna even leave the /templates/ folder empty because will be populated from other place in the zip.

That place is the /manage/i/ folder. There you have to delete again the default templates and put your templates. Each time when you install, the info from here will be copied into the /templates/ folder, and used as default.
