Description: This is an admin modules that helps non-designers with being able to edit css files very easily.

The issue that I have is that people love WB but they want to have some control over changing the templates. Currently they have to understand html and css to do that. What I want is a way

* for developers to easily specify what parameters can and can not be changes,
* to quickly be able to use the templates that are already there,
* to get more templates developed that can fit into the above structure, and
* to allow a single template to take on many different looks

Please give the module a try and let me know what you think.

Requires: WB 2.7

To get the full use of the system:

1) Install the templatemodifier module

2) Make a change to the index.php file at the top level. Add the following to line 36:

if(isset($_GET['template']) and $_GET['template'] != '') define('TEMPLATE',$_GET['template']);

This will allow you to see the template changes easily.

3) Add-on the bizbox template that has the edit file as part of it
You can get this from Discussion

4) Go to the admin tools and click on the template modifer. You will then be able to select the bizbox template to make changes to.

5) You can make changes to set parameters, you can change the entire css file or you can restore the file back to its old state.

6) To add a new template to the list copy the
a) edit.php file to the new template directory
b) make sure the css file is called screen.css
c) add editdef.inc if you want to specify the parameters that a user can change
