How To Change Theme via the Files

[Airborne328]

I am having some major problems with a theme I installed . I just recently installed site with no issues.

Now I got all kinds of errors with the theme. I can't access 98% of the area in ACP.

Even to change theme back to default.



Can I change it manually through one of the files, and if so, what file. Would like it back to default for now, until the error is figured out and why.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Try changing it via your Profile, first.

It's all locked up in ACP, so that isnt an option. And the theme is giving so many errors when accessing the ACP.

Hence why I need to change it manually via the files or a file if it can even happen

not via ACP, but via your Profile. Your profile is edited outside of the ACP.

The only other way to do it is with manual DB edits.

Firstly did you install a 140 theme? Are we talking fisubice?

I have a feeling that you are using a theme for the wrong board, what errors are popping up?

Also ensure that the sytle is valid and reload the files.

I'm also in need of this info!

I have just installed IM and imported my old phpbb database. After that the old Theme came active and i can no longer get into my admin or site.
So i need to change theme back to subsilver, since this theme isn't for IM

For regulat phpbb u can follow this

How can this be done with IM?

hi

If you have subsilver still loaded on your board you can make it the default theme by changing it to 1 in your phpbb_theme table in your database...(REMEMBERTO BACK UP FIRST)...

if you need to get fisubice as the default theme then just change this to 1 in the database....

I hope that helps
