Loading New Templates
Hi,

2 Template questions
I was asked to transfer a Links SQL site onto another domain
The original coder made the error of saving the new template set as 'default' instead of a new one.

1) How to I grab this 'default' and save it as a new template set (ie. orange)
2) How do I load this new set (orange) onto Links SQL 2.2.0?

Thanks,

Tracy Blush

this is not the Links SQL board.... but I may be able to help you a little

Links SQL keeps track of templates and can restore them to their original so long as template changes were done through the template editor. non standard and modified templates are marked with an asterisk after their filename in the pull-down list on the template editor page.

the standard default templates are found in:

links/admin/templates/default

whereas, your custom default templates should be found in:

links/admin/templates/default/local

I know that doesn't really answer your question, but that should help you at least find your files. after that its just your preference on how to copy them over. Ie, tar them with fileman, use ssh/telnet/ftp to transfer them to the other host, and untar them.
