perhaps i am faint glimmer —
because im hoping someone has an easy button to editing their templates for use on proboards 

as the title says!
personally, i find it a lot easier to code templates into codepen and since proboards syntax is much different from regular html/css, how do you convert your code? do you painstakingly go through it, or do you have faster methods?

personally, I use a find and replace tool to do as much of the work for me as possible (switching brackets, turning periods into [newclass=., etc) but beyond that, I still find the process incredibly tedious.

i do the same as you -- find and replace tool is my best friend. i do remember someone making a script for quick conversions though, let me see if i can find it...

mmm no i can't find it, but i only looked for like a total of 3 minutes. i'm pretty sure it was posted on wicked :thinking emoji:

i've been having some pretty dark thoughts.
Word of caution: That doesn't always work, so make sure to have a backup plan, dfkjsdhlfksdh.

I just use Open Office to find + replace all the stuff. Most of my stuff, I can actually convert in just, like, seven replacements, so it only takes a minute or two to convert the whole thing over. I did also, like... convert over near all fifty of my ShiBiCoMo codes, though... rapid fire style... so maybe that speed's just from repetition...

Word -> ctrl f ">" or "]" etc., replace them.
Then I just go in convert the css by hand, usually in word or notepad++. I think the newclass .newclass changes are the most tedious...
Just make sure you don't replace " in word or open office because it will show up as an "unknown character" and break the code.
