    Upgrading Custom Style 3.6.0

    Hello. I use a custom made by me and my friend at my vBulletin forum. However, we haven't been updating the templates since they still seem to work alright. I'm wondering though, now since I'm making some changes and cleaning things up, if there is something I should do in these issues?

    Thanks

    You can back your templates, revert them, and then re-apply your customizations.

    This way you're using the latest 3.6.x code and still have your customizations applied to them.

    speaking .... always wondered... is there a way to back all one's templates at once?

    (I've been copy-paste saving each of the one-by-one...which is a real pain in the bazooka) +_+

    Yes, you can export a style. You end up with an XML file
    Then import it again as a new style, give it a name.

    Now you have a copy of it. Disable it, so it's not visible to your members and perhaps prefix the name with (BACKUP) so you know which ons is your backup.
