Version Notes for 3.1.3¶
With 3.1.3 we made a small but significant change to forum and member themes.
Starting with this version both the forum and member themes that ship with
ExpressionEngine can be found in themes/ee. However, we give preference to
themes found in themes/user. If you want to customize one of the themes,
simply copy it from themes/ee to themes/user and make your changes.
Warning
If you have customized member templates copy them to your themes/user/member folder prior to updating to 3.1.3. If you do not put customized themes in themes/user you may lose your customizations when you update your site.
For example, if you want to modify the default member themes copy
themes/ee/member/default to themes/user/member/default. Now whenever
you edit a member template inside the Template Manager it will edit the
corresponding file in themes/user/member/default!
Note
If you have not customized any of the forum themes you may safely delete themes/user/forum.
