De.scription and Message
Hi there I hope someone can help.
Bit of background..
I've had a problem with themes now for several months and been forced to stick fisubice as the default and forced style for users of my board.
When I was using 1.32 I had the SlateB2 theme which was ideal for my site. Upgraded to 1.40 and there were problems with SlateB2 due to new version and this was the stage I put fisubice as the default..
Recently applied all relevant updates to the site bringing it up to current version of phpBB and the security mod. When doing the updates, I went from 2.17 to 2.18 then to 2.19 manually editing the relevant files. All further updates from 2.20 to current I used the pre-modded files supplied with each update.
I downloaded and installed martial_IM_140 theme that I downloaded via a link on this site. Also tried several of the themes located in downloads section..
Now to my problem...
In user's profile the ability to select which theme you want to use has dissapeared. Instead.. I've change my theme for my account via ACP > Users > Manage to the installed theme martial. When I save and click on Forum Index I expect the theme to be active on the site as it used to work in the past.. However fisubice theme is still active.
I have disabled force global theme option in ACP and when I look in eXtreme Styles management I can see 1 user has martial as the selected theme.
Have I missed something with the updates, has anyone encountered this problem before, am I being stupid? Or do I have to restore my files?
Any help would be greatly appreciated..
