TMS is the most useful thing I ever met.

You can buy a branding-free-license to remove the (linked) copyright-footer.

It works fine on vBulletin 3.7.4PL1

Hmm, I havn't been able to reproduce this yet, but sounds like a JavaScript problem.

@momo2
It works just fine with 3.6.x, 3.7.x - I used it on dozens of production sites (both 3.6 and 3.7).
I did not extensively test it (yet), but it should also work just fin with 3.8 RC 2

Adereas, it does work but not with all the skins, but my main, complaint is why u have tm showing in my footer, which i have no problem with as long it goes to this post, or to ur hack post in ur site, but than again u what i am saying..

TMS works with any style. However, if there are customized templates in your style you might have to customize the template modifications as well.

Works fine with 3.8 RC2 also.

This looks great. One question though.

I understand that only templates that have been customized (changed) can be added to the TMS. Lets say I have a template setup like this.

Master Style
-- Default Style
-- Custom Fluid
-- Custom Fixed

I want to remove all the custom edits to the fluid and fixed styles and add them to the TMS.

If I add the edits needed to the fixed and fluid styles to match the hand edits I have already done, is it necessary to revert the fixed and fluid styles? Or, does TMS simply apply the edits to the originals and output the template correctly?

The reason I ask, is after trying a simple edit - I reverted the template and the 'test' failed.

Thank you,

[Andreas]

To convert manually modified templates to TMS:

1) Find out a single change in the affected template
2) In Template Modifications Manager select 'Add Template-Modification' from the MASTER style dropdown
3) Select the Template, enter a descriptive title (eg. Add link to Chat), a varname, search and replace text
4) Hit save

Repeat these steps as necessary.
Once you've done with all modifications, create a new style with no parent style.
Test the modifications. If they all pass, select the style in frontend and check if it does what it should do.
If so, you can revert the template.

Thanks for the fast reply.

Just another clarification if I may ask.

Using the example above.

Master Style
-- Default Style
-- Custom Fluid
-- Custom Fixed

If I change the Master Style, won't it affect all three other styles (default, fluid and fixed)? They all have different customizations.

Sorry if these questions are a little mundane, I can PHP code pretty well but I had my site style designed by a third party.

Thank you,

[Andreas]

Yes, it does. If you want different template modifications in different styles you must add or customized them there (whih means that the templates must be customized as well as otherwise the styles just use a virtual copy of the inherited template, eg. a real copy of the template does not exist in this case - which makes it impossible to apply modifications that are different from the inherited style).

Thanks for the confirmation, this is a great product!

Amazing little tool!
One question...
What is the difference between the 1-1-4 and 1-1-5 engines?
It's not explained and I saw no real info on this anywhere in the thread.

See the first post - If you use MySQL 4.1 series, MySQL 4.1.10 or higher is required
If you use MySQL 5.0 seriesn, MySQL 5.0.3 or higher is required

@HossMon
Take a look at the first post @ Version History

[dartho]

I've just upgraded my live site to vBulletin 3.8.0 and also upgraded to TMS 1.1.5. (from 1.0.0)

And it all went well!

I have a TMS rule at add the 'vbstatus' add-on code to my postbit_legacy template.

When I 'Test Template Modifications', it shows no tick in the test results column, and suggests I need to Edit this rule. However - the template edit rule is still being applied successfully. How can this be so? Even if I go in to edit it and save, still works even though I changed nothing and the test result is negative?

I'm sure I am missing something, but am unsure as to what...

This is probably one of the best mods ever made. I honestly don't know how it's not a default part of vb
