There is an easyer way of working with templates.
If you theme is named Default it's located in
.. / themes / default
If it's a template from the news module the templates for that module is located in
.. /modules / news / templates
Now - copy the original template from the module-directory and place it in
.. / themes / default / modules / news /
Do the edit in the file you just placed in the themes folder.
If anything goes wrong, just rename or delete the file and XOOP will use the file from the modules directory
You get it?
First XOOPS look for templates files in the theme directory.
If not exist, then it use the file from the module directory.
