Hi

Is it possible to change the business_pro template name to something more custom in the HTML code? I've tried updating the XML documents but the template will not display in Joomla. Can anyone advise what specific code I need to change for this to work? Thanks

Hello,

Changing this is a bit more advanced and not generally recommended unless you are experienced with this. No one will see the site name unless they look at the source code of the site.

1) You need to change all the references to the old template to references for the new template name. These are mainly found in templateDetails.xml and specific.xml files. The easiest way is to do a search on the server and replace on the old names.

2) Update the vertex.json file and change the name in there as well

{"vertexFramework":{"construction":{

Again this is not something we recommend or provide support for so make sure you make a backup.
