I've download a free template on the web that I want to use for my new website, that I gonna make with CMSMS.

Is there any documentation availleble for converting a own theme to CMSMS.

Also, take a look at the default templates, and how they were created.

If you would send me a link to the free template you want to use, I can probably convert it for you and then you can see the code changes. The video is very helpful to get started and there are a few quirks along the way depending on template. Changing menus from the free template to the menumanager can take a bit of time to get used to.

I've converted over 100 of the templates and will be posting them on the Theme website shortly. I wanted to make sure everything would still work correctly with all of the recent changes to CMS Made Simple over the last 6 months.
