Hi all,

Could someone please tell me where (exactly) modified Sermon Browser templates are stored? The original (unmodified default) templates seem to be contained in:
…/sermon-browser/sb-includes/sb-install.php
but any changes I make via WordPress > Sermons > Templates, don't modify that file.

Thanks.

The modified templates are not written to a file; instead, they are saved in the database. The file you were looking at contains the default templates only, that will get restored if you hit the "Reset to defaults" button.

Specifically, I believe they are stored in your "_options" WordPress database table, using 5 different option names:
sermonbrowser_search_template
sermonbrowser_search_output
sermonbrowser_single_template
sermonbrowser_single_output
sermonbrowser_css_style

These are stored in Base64 encoding, so if you poke around in your database using phpMyAdmin, it's not in readable text.

Excellent answer, Ben!

The encoding explains why I couldn't find portions of the template in the database export. I tried decoding some, and they look correct.

Thanks bro!
