CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi!
I had a crash and unfortunatley the MySQL is totallly corrupted. However I still have all the other files. So here is my problem: I do not know how to get the the templates and the stylesheets into the theme manager. I just have the standard templates that come with the installation files.
The templates and stylesheets are from an xml template that I imported when setting up the website and that I customized.
So can anybody tell me, how can I import or retrieve them again? And where does DMS made simple store them?

thanks for your help .... and sorry if all this sounds quite dumb

CMSMS stores the templates in the database.  If the database is corrupted and unsalvageable, then hopefully you have either a recent database backup, or you exported your customized templates as XML files at some point, so that you can simply re-import them.

Well, thanks for your answer, unfortunately it was the backup that had a crashed DB after my server crashed .... anyway, I did it by hand all again. 
but now I will store them as XML-files. Will never forget your advice

Don't you find SQL backups more practical ?

I think he was saying that he'll export the customized themes as XML files so that if he runs into this situation again, he can just import the XML.
