Someone asked me if I could add support for Smart Highlighting in the theme conversion and the answer is: Yes, I can. Actually I've just did that. Unfortunately, Notepad++ isn't accepting the new styles from the stylers.xml. They are: Smart HighLighting, Incremental highlight all, Tags match highlighting, Tags attribute, Active tab focused indicator, Active tab unfocused indicator, Active tab text and Inactive tabs.
I hope someone (maybe Don Ho?) could explain it 'cause I can't. The odd thing is that even if stylers.xml is set right with a color, when I open the Styler Configurator within NP++ it shows a different color for the option. Sad thing...

I think, Harry means Notepad++ can keep its configuration files in its own folder OR in the Application Data folder - depending on existence of "doLocalConf.xml" in Notepad++'es folder. So, maybe you modify the configuration files in Notepad++'es folder whereas Notepad++ uses the files from Application Data folder?

Wow, It really happened! My Notepad++ isn't using %APPDATA%/Notepad++ folder anymore, it's now using %PROGRAMFILES%/Notepad++. I think it happened when I updated to the zip version of Notepad++ 5.1.1 (ANSI). I'm now using it because I need QuickText to be productive.

But _good_ plugin should use NPPM_GETPLUGINSCONFIGDIR to determine current config directory (to be universal)
Its explained here:

in short, look in APPDATA if you haven't already done so
WTF? Do you think I'm retarded?

I think if you delete the file doLocalConf.xml that comes with the zip version, it will use %APPDATA% again.
