Under Templates and Styles ---> Browse Templates,
I could download templates,

but then under

Import a Theme
Local File ______________ Browse
URL __________________


I tried to use Browse to select the downloaded template, but there are so many subfolders and files, I don't know which one to select.

As for that URL, what am I suppose to put in there? A link to another forum where I want my forum to look like? And it will automatically download the template from that forum?



Upload the xml file and check the box 'ignore version'.
Acp -> templates & style -> theme -> import new theme

When you click on import theme, you see browse computer, click that and select the xml file.
Thank you for the instruction. I almost messed it up by successfully applied it. Toungue My forum all the sudden was updated with someone else's logo, etc. from the template lol...

How do I change such things to replace with my own?
^ find the location of that logo & replace with your forum's logo ( if you can't find the location of logo then post your forum URL ) ..

I found the logo and replaced it...so I thought. When I applied the template again, it's still the wrong logo lol.

Well, my problem is much more than just a logo. I am such a noob on these matters.

is my forum site.

What I really want is to have the forum top look just like this homepage, which was just finished a few hours ago lol... I am still learning the basics.
