Question about user theme selection

I would like to establish a default theme and NOT offer my site user the ability to change to another theme..is this possible, without deleting all the other themes from my site?

I just don't know where to start to disable this user function Evil or Very Mad

Here would be one way. In Your_Account/navbar.php, find this code on or about line 71

Code:

if ($thmcount > 1) {
$menuimg = menuimg("themes.gif");
echo "<td width=\"10%\"><font class=\"content\">"
."<center><a href=\"modules.php?name=Your_Account&op=chgtheme\"><img src=\"$menuimg\" border=\"0\" alt=\""._SELECTTHETHEME."\" title=\""._SELECTTHETHEME."\"></a><br>"
."<a href=\"modules.php?name=Your_Account&op=chgtheme\">"._SELECTTHETHEME."</a>"
."</center></form></font></td>";
}

change it to

Code:

if ($thmcount > 1) {
$menuimg = menuimg("themes.gif");
/***
echo "<td width=\"10%\"><font class=\"content\">"
."<center><a href=\"modules.php?name=Your_Account&op=chgtheme\"><img src=\"$menuimg\" border=\"0\" alt=\""._SELECTTHETHEME."\" title=\""._SELECTTHETHEME."\"></a><br>"
."<a href=\"modules.php?name=Your_Account&op=chgtheme\">"._SELECTTHETHEME."</a>"
."</center></form></font></td>";
***/
}

Then, as a safety measure to keep the white hat hackers from slipping by Wink

also modify Your_Account/index.php. Find this code towards the bottom

Code:

case "chgtheme":
chgtheme();
break;

and change it to

Code:

case "chgtheme":
// chgtheme();
break;

Another less elegant, but simpler way, is to just change this line
if ($thmcount > 1)
to
if ($thmcount > 1000)

Since you will never have 1000 themes, the logic never executes.
