Thank you for downloading the Plain Template for Textpattern. This template was designed by James Kostner...all I did was attach it to the Textpattern CMS. This is one of the simpler templates, so let's get started!
Page Templates
In the folder called "pages" you will find 2 text files. TXP comes with 2 page templates already, "default" and "archive". That is all I am using here though my versions have been modified somewhat.
In TXP go to "presentation/pages". This will normally show you the default page template. You can't delete this one so don't bother trying. What you can do is select all the text and delete it so you have an empty text box. Now open the "default page template.txt" file and copy/paste the whole thing into the text box and save it.
Now select the "archive" page and do the same thing using the "archive page template.txt" file as your source.
That's the page templates done!
Form Templates
In the folder called "forms" you should find only one text file. The only form you have to replace is the "default" article form which should already be selected when you navigate to the "Presentation/Forms" area of your admin panel. Now simple copy and past the text from the document into the field and save.
Sections
You do not need to modify any sections for this template.
Images
Simply upload the entire "images" directory directly into your installation, so that the images are in the directory containing your "index.php" and "textpattern" files.
CSS
Copy and paste the text in the text file inside the "css" directory and paste it into the box in the "Presentation/Style" area of the admin panel.
Done!
