How to edit SMF pages

[espmartin]

Hello,

I've upgraded my Simple Machine Forum to 1.1.4 - but I can't find where to
do actual edits to the HTML pages that are generated. Anyone know what
file(s) to edit? For example, the footer links and such...

TIA

Ive never used SMF but i would imagine it would be the same as PhpBB where you just edit the template files ?

Should be the .tpl files of your existing template.

In SMF there is only one file index.template.php that responsible for the content and you can edit. Most of the elements are generated dynamically though...

Thanks SkinnerW and Meti. I'll go through those files now

Any ideas if SMF offers sitemap.xml generation? I can use other means, but I just
wanted to know if they offer one natively?

I don't believe there is a built-in sitemap feature in SMF. You may want to check theirs support forum if any sitemap plugins available.

I have never used in SMF but i heard SMF is the next generation forum software. It is written in the popular language php and used a MYSQL database.
