Using: XOOPS 2.3.3; newbb 3.08

I'm in the process of customizing my site with all new templates. I cloned the default template set, set the new template set to display, and checked yes on "show changes in templates." I've had no problem changing other templates around the site, or in changing the newbb_index or newbb_viewforum templates... but I am entirely unable to change newbb_thread and newbb_item. None of the changes I make are displaying on the live site.

In scanning through the templates for flat and threaded display, I noticed these files are being imported in:

My first thought was that these lines might be pulling from the default templates, so I experimented with replacing the calls to newbb_thread with the full URL to the templates I wanted it to read... which resulted in just a blank page. Apparently it didn't want to import the file that way.

Since I know absolutely nothing about PHP, my question is: are these commands pulling from the default template instead of my cloned one? And if so, how would I reroute them to the correct files?

Thank you both for the help. I upgraded my existing site successfully and copied the class/cache/ and class/file/ folders to the XOOPS installation on the new domain... and none of the users' data transferred with it. Did I misunderstand you?

And, though it is not a priority, have you heard any word on whether the user you mentioned still has the files he used in converting his forums from newbbex to cbb?

Grazi grazi.

Humor the web-illiterate.

I'm in the process from moving my old site (running on XOOPS 2.0.16) to both a new location and to XOOPS 2.3.3. Which folders/files do I need to back up and/or alter from my old site to retain all user data across the move?


Also, in moving from newbbex (version 1.4 I believe) to CBB 3.0.8, is it possible to retain posts? (In layman's terms, please.)
