What part of the readme would give you this impression??? I don't think you are reading the instructions that come with COWOA v2.4.. (it sure doesn't sound like you are) Specifically you are not following the instructions in step THREE.. Which tells you EXACTLY what to do with the YOUR_TEMPLATE folders.
Please re-review the readme file.. specifically the "Installation" tab, specifically STEP THREE of the installation steps.. Tell me after reading this if you are still not clear on EXACTLY what to do with the YOUR_TEMPLATE folders.. I could simply post the readme here, but what is the point of writing a readme then??

includes/modules/YOUR_TEMPLATE/no_account.php (Move)
includes/modules/YOUR_TEMPLATE/os_downloads.php (Move)
These 3 files are listed that would not match the template folder being used.
Example:
These are the folders I have listed in my templates folder-
includes/templates/black_pure_free (this is the active template folder)
includes/templates/classic
includes/templates/template_default
In the modules folder these are the folders inside-
includes/modules/classic (this is the only potentially matching folder)
includes/modules/debug_blocks
includes/modules/order_total
includes/modules/pages
includes/modules/payment
includes/modules/shipping
includes/modules/sideboxes
Classic is the only folder that matches in both directories. (the only file in includes/modules/classic is empty.txt)
Based on the instructions, I would have assumed that normally a folder called includes/modules/black_pure_free should already exist, which it does not. All the other folders in the instructions already exist and match.
Example: includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE/time_out.php is a core file I am supposed to merge for COWOA. The folder does exist based on the normal logic and instructions. (includes/languages/english/black_pure_free)
So should I essentially just create a new folder called black_pure_free, since the instructions tell me to "rename" the folder to match my template name? (Which doesn't exist)
I'm asking this because the first file I listed about is a merge of core files and that file does not exist. (includes/modules/YOUR_TEMPLATE/create_account.php) I would assume I need to put the file at includes/modules/black_pure_free/create_account.php but it doesn't exist.
Do you understand what I am saying?
takosabi, the name "YOUR_TEMPLATE" is designed to be changed to match your current template. The default template name is "classic". It looks like that is what you are using so you would put all the files from the YOUR_TEMPLATE folder into the "classic" folder. (includes/templates/classic).
Thank you,

Which the readme CLEARY states.. It would appear that takosabi has not viewed the readme file..

Please stop responding, you are of no help with your current attitude. If you don't understand what I am asking then, then say so. It doesn't help to keep repeating "read the instructions." I've clearly read them if I am literally copying lines out of it for clarification.

I understand that. My current template is black_pure_free, not classic.
My specific example belonged to this section:
There are 25 Zen Cart Core files that are over-written for this module. If you have any other Modules installed that uses these files, compare and merge the files and look for the COWOA word that is before all of the entries, just copy and paste those lines into your files. Some have very minor changes, others have a lot of additions.
This file listed at number 14 (includes/modules/YOUR_TEMPLATE/create_account.php), based on the instructions would be (includes/modules/black_pure_free/create_account.php). But it does not exist, so there is nothing to "merge" or "compare", so is it safe to assume I can just create the folder even though it doesn't exist and move the files?

No attitude.. Free to answer if I like, and you are free to ignore if you choose.. But now that you've narrowed down what you are actually asking, your question wasn't clear to begin with.. (your following post was a LOT more clear than your previous posts)

You need to check your install files.. I just downloaded v2.4 again and checked the zip file, and I also checked the file I submitted when I submitted v2.4.. Both do indeed include the modified create_account.php file.. Oh.. but let me stop responding..

"Should I just create the folder based on what template I am using? (black_pure_free)"
------
Example: includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE/time_out.php is a core file I am supposed to merge for COWOA. The folder does exist based on the normal logic and instructions. (includes/languages/english/black_pure_free)
"So should I essentially just create a new folder called black_pure_free, since the instructions tell me to "rename" the folder to match my template name? (Which doesn't exist)"
Both times I asked specific questions, and tried to elaborate, which CLEARLY showed I have read the instructions but was seeking clarification. Telling me the to read the instructions, repeatedly, esp. piggy backing off another user's response, is definitely a patronizing attitude. If you didn't understand what I was asking, you could just say so without having to patronize me.
The file is not missing in the COWOA download folder, it is there. The "core file" does not exist on my current installation on the server. So I cannot compare/merge/etc, as per the directions, I could only move the file from COWOA. This didn't seem correct. Hence me asking if it safe for me to just go ahead and create the folder, or am I missing files/folders that I need to find?

If the file doesn't exist, then simply copy COWOA the file into the correct location.. You only need to merge if that file existed..

If my question was unclear you could have simply asked me to clarify what part didn't make sense. I was trying to give as much information as I could, and maybe it was just too much to comprehend or I just didn't do a good job like I thought I did.
And whether you realize or now, how you type carries a lot of inflection and tone to the reader. The way you type comes off in a very passive aggressive manner. You have 1 line in particular in your profile that leads me to believe I'm not the only one that's felt this way. I mean no offense.
"Uh huh.. Right.. Not patronizing.. Your original question was not clear.. Period.." <-- This is totally reads as a sarcastic and almost patronizing comment BTW.
Anyways that's for your assistance.
