Keeping The Theme Changes

[shakuni]

Hi, I have edited too many template files. In case an update to the forum is released, how do I keep the changes I have made? I come from WordPress background where we use child themes. Thanks.

EXTRA.CSS usage seems to be the popular choice or using the style properties to reduce edits upon updates. Alternatively there's a TMS add-on that may be of interest and 1.2 will have it's own TMS built into the core when 1.2 is released that may also be of interest to you.

Obviously, some template edits can't be helped and need to be done depends on what your doing and trying to accomplish/implement.
