templates

[stv]

can you post a sample of what a template looks like(or just include this in the admin demo that your talking about). Also in templates can we use like if/if not?

Hi Steven,

You'll be able to look at (and edit) all the templates when we complete the admin demo in the next couple of days.

Templates aren't parsed like regular code, so you can't have if/then structures as you would in conventional programs. Saying that, there is an option to parse the header as for PHP code, in which case you can initialise variables that can be used in any other template thoughout the system. It's clever stuff :)

All the best,

James

I can say, that those templates rule :)
one of the best features of vB

Is there a way of using mutiple templates on messages?

Sort of like different skins - people get a different look depending on their start URL?

I believe John mentioned this would be in a BIG upgrade release around summer.
