Hi,

I have built a number of xcart stores in 4.2.2 and have just started using 4.4.2 today.

From what I can see the skin folder now contains a common files and a folder for each template.

I can understand why this has been done, so that you can switch between the pre installed themes easily.

However, I am finding it difficult to implement a new custom theme as i have to find template files across two folder structures.

What decides if a file should be in common_files/customer or {yourtheme}/customer?

Should I not touch the files in common_files at all and just edit {yourtheme}/customer?

Is the idea that a file in your theme folder overrides a file in the common_files folder.

I have read through the latest menual updates and there is no explanation for this.

Any ideas?
