NAME

    subsilvercp - Make a copy of phpbb template directory

DOWNLOAD

subsilvercp

SYNOPSIS

    $ cd templates
        # Create a new template dir named 'newName',
        # based on 'subSilver'
    $ subsilvercp newName

DESCRIPTION

subsilvercp creates a new phpbb template directory parallel to the default 'subSilver' hierarchy. It not only copies everything to the new directory, but also renames a couple of files and replaces instances of the string 'subSilver' in various files:

    subSilver/            newName/
      theme_info.cfg        theme_info.cfg
      subSilver.cfg         newName.cfg
      ...                   ...

Be careful when choosing a new name, make sure it doesn't contain special characters, and it's long enough to not collide with some variable name in phpbb.

When you're done, there's a new template directory under templates. To install it, go to phpbb's admin page, select ``Style Add'' and click ``Install''. Then, go to the ``Configuration'' panel, scroll down to ``Default Style'' and select the new style from the dropdown list. Also, check ``Yes'' on ``Override user style'' to make sure users get the new style.
