Things to do for template integration in Clipshare

Before integrating new template , please understand the templates structure of the clipshare with your new template file structure.

May be the master will be in /templates/head1.tpl and will be closed in /templates/footer.tpl

1. Copy the css file from the given new template and paste it into the clpshare /css folder

2. Copy the /images folder from the new template and replace it into the clipshare.

3. Edit the existing css file name in the /templates/head1.tpl into the new css file copied above.

4. In Clipshare all pages are seperated into different .tpl files(for ex:head1.tpl for header,footer.tpl for footer such as)

5. Each page are the combination of several .tpl files and that are specified in that corressponding .php file.(ex: index.php seperated into five .tpl files such as head1.tpl,footer.tpl,search.tpl,index.tpl,right.tpl).

6. So we have to separate our new template pages into several .tpl files specified in the ,php files.
