if i want to change a theme, is there anyway i can know which templates i edited? so i can edit them again? or does it to it automatically
By Changing Theme, if you to mean to Change theme to default or force to Users, then you can do this in ACP > Themes > Select Theme > Edit [Options] > And select "Force Users" and "Make this theme default".

Or if you mean to Upload a new theme then: http://wiki.mybb.com/index.php/Admin_CP_Themes#Import

im sorta confused. here this is a simpler way. What i mean is i want to download a new theme. now i have made a bunch of edits to my templates in that theme. if i set a new theme as default, will i have to edit the new templates again? (like do i have to edit the templates i editied in the old theme to the new theme?)

Yes you do have to edit them over, and no you cant just click a button to see what edit you made, you should have remembered.

Yes, you will need to make the edits to the new themes templates. Some themes have different code in the templates, so previous can't be added automatically.
