Also running with Apache2 &#38; PHP5 on Windows Server 2003.</p> <p>With version 0.8.1 I am not able to choose the Kakumei theme. Because the theme path is set to a local path in the server:</p> <pre><code>E:\\Sites\\markusfagervall.se\\forums/bb-templates/kakumei/</code></pre> <p>Thinking that this may be because of bad config values in the database I tried this:<br /> <pre><code><a href="http://xxxxxx/forums/bb-admin/themes.php?theme=/forums/bb-templates/kakumei/" rel="nofollow">http://xxxxxx/forums/bb-admin/themes.php?theme=/forums/bb-templates/kakumei/</a></code></pre> <p>And I am asked if I am sure I want to switch themes... I answer Yes and then I get the "Theme not found. Default theme applied." again.</p> <p>Any ideas?</p> <p>Cheers,<br /> Joakim </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/cant-switch-themes-in-081#post-5104 Sun, 04 Mar 2007 00:37:22 +0000 fel64 5104@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>The bozo problem has a fix now, so if you can get your theme sorted you're set. <a href="http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/37?replies=4" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/37?replies=4</a> </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/cant-switch-themes-in-081#post-5093 Sat, 03 Mar 2007 17:51:07 +0000 ccmve 5093@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>No Luck. Between this and the Bozo problem I just ended up reverting to .74. My theme works again, but people flagged as Bozos are not hidden from general view. No problem, I'll just delete them and wait for 1.0! </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/cant-switch-themes-in-081#post-5049 Thu, 01 Mar 2007 20:45:32 +0000 ccmve 5049@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I changed the value of bb_active_theme in the database to:<br /> /bb-templates/kakumei</p> <p>However, when I refresh the admin &gt; presentation page in a browser the it reverts back to:<br /> C:\WWW\PUBLIC\forums.mybbpress.com/bb-templates/kakumei </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/cant-switch-themes-in-081#post-5006 Wed, 28 Feb 2007 22:32:17 +0000 ccmve 5006@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>OK.

I've no experience with that whatsoever, but since it's a path on your hard drive it seems that way to me. I've seen a few people say they've had problems using bbPress with that, and someone rightly point out that if you test on xampp you'll get a bunch of errors you wouldn't get on a server and miss the ones you would get.</p> <p>I've personally had no problems on my server, and if you already have hosting and an unused or wordpress db then there probably isn't any harm in just testing it on the server. :)</p> <p>Edit: err - hehe ... </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/cant-switch-themes-in-081#post-4999 Wed, 28 Feb 2007 19:06:19 +0000 ccmve 4999@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I deleted all the theme files, and uploaded mytheme to /my-templates/mytheme/ </p> <p>I was unable to select mytheme from the presentation tab as it still listed the absolute path in the middle of the URL with extra slashes:<br /> <a href="http://" rel="nofollow">http://</a> forum.mybbpress.com/bb-admin/themes.php? theme=C:\\WWW\\PUBLIC\\forums.mybbpress.com/ my-templates/mytheme/&#38;_wpnonce=36ec0251eb</p> <p>I had to reload the kakumei folder to /bb-templates/kakumei to get the site working agin.

Not sure if it's necessary.</p> <p>As a temporary fix, you could right-click the link, select Copy Link Location, paste it into your URL and just change the path so it links to your theme. Might be worth a try :) </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/cant-switch-themes-in-081#post-4997 Wed, 28 Feb 2007 18:00:20 +0000 ccmve 4997@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I can't use a custom these after upgrading to 0.8.1.</p> <p>Under the presentation tab it lists my custom theme, but with this URL:<br /> <a href="http://" rel="nofollow">http://</a> forum.mybbpress.com/bb-admin/themes.php? theme=C:\\WWW\\PUBLIC\\forums.mybbpress.com/ bb-templates/mytheme/&#38;_wpnonce=36ec0251eb</p> <p>How can I eliminate the extra slashes and the reference to the absolute path?</p> <p>The default theme is working, and it works great, but I'd like to be able to use my custom theme again! </p>
