1- Once you have downloaded your new theme, open the folders untill you find the one that contains all the theme files 2- This is the folder that you should upload complete to your /themes/ folder in your xoops website files. 3- Copy the name exactly of the theme folder, you will need this in a later step. 4- Login to your site and go to the administration page. 5- From the system admin menu select TEMPLATES 6- You will now be in the template set manager page. 7- Where you see the theme names 'Default Theme' Click the link [clone] 8- The 'Clone a template set' page is returned with 'enter a new template set name' form 9- Enter exactly the name of the theme folder you have just uploaded to the themes folder. 10- Click submit 11- Go back to the main administration home page. 12- From the System admin menu select 'Preferences>General settings [edit] 18- Line 8 displays Default theme.

 Theme Changes After Log in


I followed the instructions in this FAQ in an effort to stop the following:

When I first go to my site http://www.fresnostatebaseball.com I get the theme as set in config for default. As soon as I log in the site reverts to a theme I used to use as default. When I log out ... it goes back to the correct theme.

What could be causing this??

Check your Edit Account page. See if you selected another theme there to view.
