Skins and the skins selector question
« on October 11th, 2012, 03:35 PM »
Firstly am still finding my way around though not finding it to hard to find my way around, but am liking what am seeing,
I have a question on the skins and the skin selector.
Am sorry if this is answered somewhere already I have been reading the last few days, I like the selector and am wondering if when more skins are added to it or if I ever learn how to do them myself will they be able to be added to the skin selector manually? or would they automatically be added to the selector? 


Thank you

Angie

They will be added to the skin selector automatically once added to the forum.

You don't even have to 'install' them, you just upload them to your skins folder and you're done. It's enabled, and available in the Skin Selector page (in your profile menu).
If you're talking about the Skin Selector selectbox in the sidebar, it's the same, it's automatically available in it as well, but that selectbox isn't a core feature of Wedge, it's an external plugin. (A very simple one... Could probably warrant being core with a switch in the admin area.)

You're welcome.
I'm pretty much the lead frontend developer for Wedge (I'll gladly give Pete the title of lead backend developer![1]), so if you have any questions, feel free to ask... :)
