Theme Switcher Problem
Asked Modified Viewed 2,386 times

I was playing around with the theme switcher and changed the theme to Greenpeace from Hayalet. Well, the theme switcher did its job and switched the theme. The problem is that I can't change the theme back because that particular theme (Greenpeace) does not have a left hand panel column where the theme switcher panel is located and I can't change the theme back using the admin settings. I have even disabled the theme switcher, but I still can't change it back.
I have also looked into the database itself, and I can't see where the theme is set to Greenpeace. In looking at the site on another computer, the correct theme (the one I want showing) is in fact showing. Can someone help me with this? The site is http://www.fredsfollies.com/sports/ and the theme I want is Voyager_v7.

Try going to your users table in the database, then change user_theme to something else. That is one way of getting yourself out of that mess.
I'm sure there are other ways, but I'm also sure you can handle that! :G

That is part of the problem...I was not logged in when I changed it so there is no user name to change the theme name to. All of the user_theme entries are listed as default, except for the admin which is set to Vayager_v7. I also have to say that this occurs only on one computer in the house. I have a laptop, which shows the right theme, and a mac laptop that also shows the correct theme.
Ah, ok so go to the settings table, and change theme to something else. This will set the site's theme. Sorry, probably should said that in the first place.

I did that already...that is why I posted my problem to see if there is something else I should be doing. The Greenpeace theme is not showing in any of the tables, yet it is being displayed on the screen. It is just weird.

Delete the Green peace theme from ftp.

It was a Firefox cache problem. Although I had cleared the cache, evidently I had not cleared all of it. Thanks for your responses.
Good deal, and in case someone else has this issue, if you rename the theme to something else (via ftp), then your site will default to 2point0 I believe. At least for me it does.
