Installed New Template But I Can't Find the Files

Post by bsmcgillis » Mon May 16, 2011 9:56 pm

Hello, I would assume that I'm having a fairly common problem, but I couldn't find anything about it using a forum search.

I just downloaded a new template and installed it to Joomla. There's no problem with the installation of the template. It works just fine. However, I would like to change a few things on it, like the images. But I can't find the folder for the template. I assumed it would be somewhere in my Joomla folder, but I didn't see it anywhere and none of the folders in there had been recently modified.

So, does anyone know exactly where the files for a new template are stored when you install them using the Upload Package File in the Extension Manager? Or does anyone know how to find the most recently modified files using windows 7?

Thanks for any help.

Ok, I found it. I was looking in the wrong Joomla Folder. I guess I installed Joomla in two places. But the one I needed was the one in my xampp htdocs folder.
