Title: Where is the current theme identity stored?
Post by: modshots on April 11, 2005, 10:55:32 pm

I changed the theme from the config screen, but the new theme (transmission) has a bug in it. Consequently I can't now get into the config screen to change it back to something that works!

Can someone tell me where in which file the current theme is stored so I can go in manually and change it by hand, or give me another clue how to restore a working theme?

I presume there's a configuration file, but just looking through the files either I missed it or it wasn't obvious which one it was

Any help would save me a lot of time digging though the code tyring to find it.

Thanks.

There are 3 ways that coppermine decides what theme to show you:

1. based on the current config setting - stored in the database - (_config table)
2. based on a cookie that contains your preference.
3. based on a parameter passed in the url, eg. www.yoursite.com/index.php?theme=classic

If you ever have probs with a theme you can just add ?theme=classic to end of your gallery url and it will set the theme to classic (for you only)

Many thanks. That helped me recover from the problem!
