Hi, I have created a new skin and for all the user actions the vm files, css and javascript code is picked up from that skin only. Thus others are not required. And as per the quote below the files in template directory are picked up only if vm files are not found in skin directory, this won't be the case for us because the vm file should exist in the skin directory.
Thus for the custom deployment of xwiki I was streamlining the xwiki code we are using and deleting redundant code. Also based on your comments below, second thing I can do is, keep all the vm code under template directory only and have the css, js, images and other static resources under the skin directoy. I feel second approach would be better one. Thanks Sachin vmassol wrote: > > > > The template files are used when the vm file required cannot be found > in the skin.
