Setting up templates was surprisingly simple.
I had held off for a few…"
Sylvia Nicosia replied to Sylvia Nicosia's discussion Advice for re-design in the group OmniUpdate"Thank you Justin, I really appreciate it. This is very useful information because it points us to the right direction. Once you get the template from OU, you do this to call whatever file you want to include on your page. We…"

The warning is going to scare people though. Are others upgrading their websites?See More
