*Remember to edit the xxxT.htm files, (not the xxx.htm files) and to have 'Include Standard Files' ticked (as shown above).
 
*Try to use a simple text editor to change the files. Many HTML editors will insert additional code, or break the standard Cumulus '[[webtags]]' by replacing the < or > symbols with character codes. Avoid using Word processors, like Word, to edit these files.
 
*Keep copies of any xxxT.htm files you modify. IfIt youis updatebest Cumulusto orback re-install,up yourthe changes will be lost aswhole Cumulus will replace with the standard templates. From version 1.8.9 onwards, the installer offers you the option of not replacing the templates in the 'web' folder, andonto alsoa installsdifferent themdisc inon a folder called 'originals' so you can refer toregular thembasis.
 
*From version 1.8.9 onwards, the Cumulus installer installs the standard templates in a Cumulus subfolder called 'web/originals' so you can refer to them. The installer offers you the option of either replacing all templates in the 'web' folder, or not replacing them, if you update Cumulus or re-install the current version. If you select to install the templates, your changes will be lost as Cumulus will replace those in the 'web' folder with the standard ones.
 
*If you are making anything but minor changes to the template, consider creating your own files with different names (in a separate folder), and havelist them for Cumulus to process these instead of the standard ones (untick).
