Template Files:
Below is a list of all of the template files included with Pligg followed by a description for each file. This should make it easier for beginners to figure out what files they will want to edit.
Because Pligg is a very advanced content management system, there are a large number of template files that control the look of your Pligg website. Not only are there templates in the /templates folder of your Pligg site, but modules will commonly have their own template files which you will find in the module directory. For example, the template for the captcha on the registration page will be controlled through a template file located somewhere in the /modules/captcha/templates folder.
