Guest Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 I run a website www.uksoccershop.com selling football shirts, as you can see it is the standard design. I am happy with this design, but from time to time when certain events happen (for example the upcoming Champions League matches), I would like to be able to switch the design for a couple of days to promote the event, then revert back to the old design when it's over. My question is, is this as simple as just designing a new template and then switching them over in the admin section? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AfterDark Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 It is if there is a template system installed. But osC by default does not come template ready. There is great debate over which system is best - STS or BTS. Personally - I wouldnt use either as they dont allow the control that I need, so I do it the old fashioned way and edit the code as I see fit. Good luck with your project.

I do have a template system installed, so should I just create as many as I want and switch between them as I please? If I do this, will it keep the original (current) design as it is just now when I switch back to it or will it go back to it's initial form?

AfterDark Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 If you have a template system installed you should know if its STS or BTS, and liekly know what they are... I dont use template systems - you'll have to ask others on how they work. I think changing the site around a lot is a mistake too btw. People look for consistency in an online shop. Constant change will not be very comforting to people. Best of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 I honestly don't know what STS and BTS stand for, can you explain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
