    Only if your more specific. We can only provide answers to specific questions. What don't you understand about xanthia themes? No one is going to take your existing theme and port it to xanthia for you but if you take the time to look at the product then we can help you with any problems you encounter.

    Well, I wouldn't say NOBODY would do it for them. Most people would do it for a fee (Provide they are capable of doing it), and some may do it for free as a learning experiance.

    But yes, ask specific questions.

    Michael's right.... I've just got home from the pub so may have been a little harse... apologies if you feel that's the case. However do be specific and ask questions to which people can actually provide answers rather than vauge questions as you originally provided.

    If your storing the templates in the database (check the xanthia module configuration) you need to reload the templates for the theme when you make a change. While working on a theme I find it easier to turn off the storing of templates in the database. You lose the online editing (via the xanthia admin panel) but don't need to re-load the templates after each change.

    Also make sure you have check for updated templates on. Xanthia themes are compiled. Each template is only re-compiled when needed and then only if you've asked the engine to look for updated templates.

    http://www.s-d-d.be/index.php
