Unless you have altered your folder structure all themes that have a folder structure of themes/THEME_NAME/index.php should automatically appear when you select the Your Account module.

Well as it happens my index.php file got corrupted and I replaced it with 1 I got from the developer. So now I'm wondering if I need to turn anything on in the file itself.

No, there shouldn't be anything to turn on.

What exactly do you see in Your_Account? Do you see a Themes button? Do you see any choices there?

No buttons, no choices and I had them before I screwed up my index.php

In your modules/Your_Account/navbar.php file

Check for the following code (may be slightly different depending on what versions and such you've done)

Code:




    $thmcount = 0;


    $handle=opendir('themes');


    while ($file = readdir($handle)) {


   if ( (!ereg("[.]",$file)) ) {


      $thmcount++;


   }


    }


    closedir($handle);





....





    if ($thmcount > 1) {


   $menuimg = menuimg("themes.gif");


   echo "<td width=\"10%\"><font class=\"content\">"


       ."<center><a href=\"modules.php?name=Your_Account&amp;op=chgtheme\"><img src=\"$menuimg\" border=\"0\" alt=\""._SELECTTHETHEME."\" title=\""._SELECTTHETHEME."\"></a><br>"


       ."<a href=\"modules.php?name=Your_Account&amp;op=chgtheme\">"._SELECTTHETHEME."</a>"


       ."</center></form></font></td>";


    }

That should be all that is necesary to show the theme button

This is what I have

Code:

 // Set TD widths


    $tds = 3;


    $handle=opendir('themes');


    while ($file = readdir($handle)) { if ( (!ereg("[.]",$file)) ) { $thmcount++; } }


    closedir($handle);


    if (is_active("Private_Messages")) { $tds++; }


    if (is_active("Journal")) { $tds++; }


    if (($thmcount > 1) AND ($ya_config['allowusertheme'] == 0)) { $tds++; }


    if ($articlecomm == 1) { $tds++; }


    if ($ya_config['allowuserdelete'] == 1) { $tds++; }


    $tdwidth = (int) ( (100/$tds) );


    // END Set TD widths








    if (($thmcount > 1) AND ($ya_config['allowusertheme'] == 0)) {


            $menuimg = menuimg("themes.png");


            echo "<td width=\"$tdwidth%\" valign=\"top\" align=\"center\" class=\"content\">\n";


            echo "<a href=\"modules.php?name=Your_Account&op=chgtheme\"><img src=\"$menuimg\" border=\"0\" alt=\""._SELECTTHETHEME."\" title=\""._SELECTTHETHEME."\"></a><br>\n";


            echo "<a href=\"modules.php?name=Your_Account&op=chgtheme\">"._ACCTTHEME."</a>\n";


            echo "</td>\n";


        }

Are you using CNBYA or some other customized version of YA? It looks like there is a setting 'allowusertheme' that needs to be turned on administratively to allow users to select their own themes. Or maybe this was a change in Nuke 7.7 in admin preferences.

You need to look around for this. I'd guess that allow user themes is not turned on.

I am assuming that 0 turns off and 1 turns on? Ok tag is back for change theme but it tells me admin has disabled it.... checking settings

At the database level that's usually the way it's done. But if there is a "preferences" setting for it somewhere you usually just click a check box to on. If you are using CNBYA look there, otherwise in admin preferences for 7.7. I don't have 7.7 and can't check for you.

sorry I am using CNBYA and no setting in admin preferences, Oh got the themes page to come up but now can't change the theme I wll keep plugging at t and give you all an update, pretty much it's all to do with my orignal index.php and I'll be checking all the command line in it...1's and 0's lol

Maybe someone who knows more about CNBYA can help. I've never seen it.

FYI folks I figured out what was causing my issue's the savetheme was set to "0"

case "savetheme":
if (is_user($user)) {
if ($ya_config['allowusertheme']== 1) {
include("modules/$module_name/public/savetheme.php");
} else {
disabled();

All good now, and thank you to all who replied to my post.....

Cheers Cheers
