Hi,

I want to change the template name from hot_hotel so that it appears as something more relevant to the website I am using it on.

I have done it before in Joomla 1.5 changing templatedetails.xml and checking index.php and css files etc but this method does not seem to work in Joomla 2.5

Can you advise how to do it

Thanks

Alan

well, you may need to do changes on template and then install it.

More steps required in Joomla 2.5:

1. Copy and Rename template folder
2. Rename template name in templateDetails.xml
3. Zip the template folder
4. Install this as new template (standard installation, not HotStart again).
