Config XML File

The config.xml file is used by the CMS to display the templates available to the user. It contains multiple <item> elements that contain information about each page template such as name and dimensions of the images that can be assigned to that page. When you create your theme, copy this file into /application/design/yourtheme/templates and customise it. If you want to add a new template, declare it with a new <item> element or if you want to restrict the number of templates, remove any unrequired <item> elements.
