Title: Forum Colour/Theme Reverts to Previous Last Color/Theme
Post by: Ventus Fall on July 22, 2017, 04:42:13 PM
I've been experiencing a bug issue with the Forum Colour.

Unsure if this is a bug to do with the update of the forums or if it's something else. I noticed it shouldn't be on my end, as it's on different computers and browers I experience this. But I am curious if others are also experiencing this:

I had been using the theme Wildpaw Green for a while (just before and after the forum updated).
However, when I changed it to Wildpaw Blue, it turns back to the colour it was before (Wildpaw Green) after a while. To which I keep changing it to the colour I want it now (which is blue).
This has been going on ever since.

Using the forums a bit doesn't change the colour. It's when I get back to it later during the day or switch computers, that when it (re)loads the page, it shows the older (green) theme again.
Even when I change to the new theme on both/all computers, it won't save it as the new theme.

The Home page used to have a Change Permanantly box you could tick to keep the new layout, but that seems to have disappeared. If you want to change your forum theme permanently, go to your profile, then select look and layout. There you'll find an option with Current theme. Clicking the (change) behind the name of the theme you're using right now should allow you to pick and keep a new theme.

Yep, indeed.  just thought with the latest big update that it would be changed permanently eitherway with whatever theme you would choose, if that makes sense?

Anyways, I just selected the WildPaw Blue theme via the Look and Layout. Let's see if that stays :)
If yes, then I guess that would be an ok temporary solution, but I think the forum theme option on the home page should work properly as well, that that would be nicer.

So far, indeed, selecting the forum theme via Look And Layout is working.
The home page selection for theme is still not working.

Apparently the new system used theme select as merely a preview and does not set it permenantly.

Hmm, makes sense.
Would there be a way to fix it, or is this going to be a permanent thing for now?
Either way is ok if it's clear, that's all :)

For now it's stuck like that, I'll try to change this but haven't had the time recently.

Allright, thanks for letting me/us know, Tweak!
Whenever you can fix it, that would be nice, but thanks for checking it out for now.
