XF 1.2 Create template in 1.2

[NuKeD]

Hello.

First, i do not speak very well English, sorry.

I'm trying to create a new template with the new system TM 1.2.

What would be the best way to create a template?

Doing visual (style) changes in extra.css? Is this optimal? (Using TM)
I have seen that changes in extra.css are written at the end of styles.css file so, if i add all css changes in extra.css any person can steal the code and paste into your extra.css and also i need add !important on every part of this CSS to work.

Regarding the new system.

I tried changing this:

#moderatorBar {
background-color: @primaryDarker;
border-bottom: 1px solid @primaryLightish;
font-size: 11px;
}

for this:

#moderatorBar {
background-color: @anothercolor;
font-size: 11px;
}

And nothing happens.

I'm going crazy to make this changes i think xD.
Exists any guide with the start steps to use TM system?

Do direct template edits unless you are writing an add-on.

For CSS you can use Style Properties, EXTRA.css or edit the css templates.

It matters not where you do it, anyone can still inspect the page and see the code.

Ok but if i edit the css templates and xenforo be updated, this css template becomes to obsolete?

Maybe my problem will be: I dont know how works TM system xD.

1.2 has a new merging capability. TMs are designed for add-on developers. Its recommended for users to edit templates directly.
