rocky Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 To delete a theme, you must use your FTP client and go to the themes directory, then delete the appropriate theme from there. There is no option in the Back Office to delete a theme.If a theme you are uploading isn't appearing in the Back Office, make sure that a preview.jpg file exists in the root directory of the theme. If one doesn't exist, create one. The preview.jpg file is used to display a screenshot of the theme in the Back Office. If one isn't provided, the theme won't display in the Back Office.Be aware that if a theme is missing preview.jpg, then it is likely that is was designed for an earlier version of Prestashop and won't work properly in the latest Prestashop version. You can try enabling "v1.1 theme compatibility" at the bottom of the Preferences tab, but there are known bugs with it in Prestashop v1.2.5 that were fixed in Prestashop v1.3.

tigra111 Posted January 30, 2010 Author Share Posted January 30, 2010 Just another question, if I changed servers is there a way of updating new settings in pretashop admin or would I have to install prestashop again form the start?Many Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocky Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 No need to reinstall. Just copy over all the files and database to the new server, then modify config/settings.inc.php so that it has the base URL and database settings to match the new server.

Social Network Friend Adder Software Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 New install v 1.4.7 Is there anywhere else themes are stored on server other than themes directory? I have several themes i uploaded via the backend and they are showing there but not in file system. I need to reinstall a theme but cant find it to delete/overwrite it. All of the themes (except the default) are NOT showing in the file system via ftp. Anyone else experience this or where i am going wrong or am i just losing my mind? ADMIN PLEASE DELETE THIS POST Yes, i am losing my mind! I was in the file system of my OTHER prestashop site. Ive been up WAAYY TOO LONG. Sorry. BTW, Thanks for the AWESOME script.
