Magento

hi Everyone,

I have duplicated the whole directories and their sub-directories:

/app/design/frontend/default/default
/skin/frontend/default/default

to,
/app/design/frontend/default/new
/skin/frontend/default/new

I have set System->Config->Design->Themes->Default to ‘new’.
Cleared cache, cleared /var/cache.

However, my homepage is still pulling from the original directories which I could verify using firebug.
The subsequent pages (catagories, products, checkout, About Us, My Wishlist etc) are ok, the files are read from /default/new.

Did I miss out anything?

Appreciate your help.

Thank you.

The general technique described in this thread prevents our custom changes from being overridden by an upgrade....But does it also mean we’ll miss out on certain upgrades that are made to the pages that we’re preserving?
