Guest keithwjones Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 I am looking at upgrading a CC4 site which is based on Kitablue skin. I have made various changes with regards favicon, colours, copyright and category images on home page - fairly basic changes. In addition, more technical, I have also added two new boxes which go in the columns, they are a search by manufacturer where you click on an image. I have added two mods Quick Edit Product Options CC4 v1.5 and Stock Levels for Product Options CC4 v1.8 which I know will no longer work in CC5. My question, which is relevant to many, is should I forget about Kitablue and use one of the new skins in CC5. Is this a case of just get on with it and sort it out, once I have done a standard upgrade. Keith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robsta Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 The skins are completely different. You should start with a v5 shipped skin and customise that to meet your design needs :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 The Vanilla skin is supplied for just such a reason. It's a full-featured skin but with hardly any design at all. It's the closest you can get to a blank slate for V5. :w00t: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gl82 Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Interesting Out of interest is there any document that explains the architecture of the cc V5 skins? I know v4 very well but im eager to get to know v5. Just wondering if there is any useful material out there you have read or watched that you'd recommend?
