Well, now I'm getting a bit confused..... I thought the idea was to have an export/import custom thread fields (a bit like the custom pages mods we see) - and the templates to be uploaded similar to the way we upload themes. That way we can develop on a test system and quickly move all the info across to a live system.
I do see that that can mean that we will have requests to modify this that and the other in our "plugins" (aka our templates & custom thread fields settings for a particular setup) - when really 90% of the time its a case of looking at the HTML/css and adapting it.
I was suggesting something that can export whole xthread settings and custom field for a particular forum in one file...
