The solution of putting anything *skin-dependent* in the 'skins' directories make sense. And then, let *.vm files that are *not skin-dependent* in the 'templates' directory. In JIRA[1], you argue that files in 'templates' may break one of the skin without noticing it (because you were testing on the other skin) but they shouldn't if they're truly *not skin-dependent*.
Of course, at least at the beginning, this modification will probably bring us bugs about skins for files that are in 'templates' (even it they shouldn't), but it's will be temporary ;-) [1] http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-11027?focusedCommentId=82727&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-82727 On Wed, Oct 01, 2014 at 02:42:02PM +0200, Guillaume "Louis-Marie" Delhumeau wrote: > Hi. > > Since 6.2, we have the following issue: > http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-11027 "The templates directory has VMs > from Colibri". > > Until now, we used to have all *.vm files in this directory, and nothing in > the "colibri" one, because Colibri was the default skin. > > Now that Flamingo is the default skin, we have to decide what we do with > this directory.
