Re: best practices?
Hi!
The multi-folder template system makes sense when you have a base layout and several color variations. If your custom theme is based on a default X-Cart skin (and just overrides a couple of files) just copy and modify a skin template folder - that will allow you to apply X-Cart patches on the unmodified main templates files without affecting/corrupting your custom modifications. If your custom theme is a completely new solid skin, there is no need to split it into two folders. However, more likely, in this case you'll have to manually apply X-Cart patches on your template files (if needed).
