 * About the other plugin , I wrote:
 * One thing this plugin lacks, the ability to show file tree of the theme. Some
   themes store CSS files inside a sub dir, and those are not displayed in the main
   files list.
 * I had to use another theme which is solid-code-theme-editor to see the files,
   but sadly that editor lacks the important other features your theme has to offer.

 * Hi DaganLev. Sorry if my post was confusing. I wanted a all in one theme editor,
   which has the features of both plugins: advanced wordpress theme editor, and 
   solid code theme editor. Solid code theme editor has what I wanted, displaying
   the files tree (which the Advanced plugin did not have), on the other hand, the
   Advanced plugin had features that the Solid plugin do not have, like displaying
   the code in a formatted way (colors), and other features, see the plugin’s page
   please.

 * cheers iceq,
    I’ll look into formatted colours and the other features (someone
   mentioned to me numbering of lines) and see what I can come up with.

 * Thank you very much for considering it and responding so nicely.
    Your plugin
   is still very useful, I did not encounter any other plugin (yet) that displays
   the theme files that are in sub dirs. So good job bro 🙂

   than Israeli. Hope you’re enjoying life out there 🙂

 * Hi again Dagan.
    I noticed something that disturbed me. I wanted to edit something
   in my template, and forget that I have installed your plugin and went directly
   to the native editor. There, in the php templages I was shocked when I did not
   see the ordinary codes but a weird code, so single.php for instance contains:
 *     ```
       vti_encoding:SR|utf8-nl
       vti_timelastmodified:TR|10 Jun 2009 18:19:26 -0000
       vti_extenderversion:SR|12.0.0.4518
       vti_author:SR|HP\\1
       vti_modifiedby:SR|HP\\1
       vti_timecreated:TR|10 Jun 2009 18:19:26 -0000
       vti_cacheddtm:TX|10 Jun 2009 18:19:26 -0000
       vti_filesize:IR|459
       vti_cachedneedsrewrite:BR|false
       vti_cachedhasbots:BR|false
       vti_cachedhastheme:BR|false
       vti_cachedhasborder:BR|false
       vti_charset:SR|utf-8
       vti_backlinkinfo:VX|
       ```
   
 * I believe it is because of your plugin, since it began only after I installed
   it.. so is this normal , and is it necessary ?

 * Hey iceq,
    There should be no issue with the regular theme editor as my plugin
   does not override any of its functionality and is restricted to its own area.
 * I also checked this on my own theme and no “weird” code is showing – I am guessing
   this is something in your own theme.
 * try disabling the plugin and see if this still persists – it is probably not 
   the plugin.
 * Cheers
    Dagan

 * Hi Dagan. Thanx for responding. I have de-activated your plugin, and the issue
   is still present. Which is strange because it did not appear before installing
   your plugin, and second, because when your plugin is active and I use your editor,
   the template files are rendered fine, as the normal code appears, while in the
   native editor they dont !!
    What could this very strange code be ? I can’t recognize
   anything in it, can you perhaps look above please maybe the thing that is causing
   this is hinted about above? Thanx again

 * Hi iceq,
    After “Googeling” the vti_timecreated function it seems to be related
   to the file meta tags in windows servers.
 * I assume that you are using a windows environment for your WordPress site – this
   could have been the case;
    So when you saved/updated the file with the plugin
   it generated this issue with the file meta tag.
 * I have tested this plugin in a windows environment and it did not cause this 
   issue on my system – I will however check this again when I get the chance.
 * I guess if you wanted this issue fixed – I would suggest to FTP the files to 
   your computer and try to open them and re-save them in your machine (maybe this
   will fix the meta file tag???)
    Then re-upload them to your site.
 * Cheers
    Dagan

 * Thanx Dagan. I downloaded the files, saved them, and uploaded to the server, 
   then I got internal server 500 error.. luckily I backued up the theme’s folder
   in the server before I did that, and I just restored it. I will contact Hostmonster’s
   support to check this out.
 * Thank you again, I appreciate your help
