Can't switch to Full Style

Post by MusicallyInspired »

So I went on the forums when I got home on my desktop...and it's the mobile theme. Can't get rid of it. There's a button that says "Switch to full theme" but when I do it's still the mobile theme. And the button now says "Switch to mobile theme" even though it's already the mobile theme.

I also don't have any options in the control panel in the mobile theme to change the theme to anything else.

I'm thinking I must have accidentally changed my default scheme to mobile on my phone and since I can't access that portion of the control panel in the mobile theme it's impossible to change it back. When I log out it's normal. Perhaps it shouldn't be possible to select the mobile theme as the default theme from your control panel?

I am banking on it's a cache issue.

I just switched to MOBILE on my desktop and managed to switch back to FULL (at the top). No problem.

Clear the cache and make sure that's not the issue.

I'm not sure what to say. There is a detection script to load the mobile style if you login with a cell. I could uninstall it as one of the available themes to remove it from the dropdown list. That way you would have to login with a cell or click the "Switch to mobile style" link to use the style. I can set you back to the default SHP.

Well it worked fine for me (I switched to mobile on my desktop at work) and was able to switch back to normal mode. Like I said, I wonder if the Mobile version is cached - and if he clears the cache if that will release it to renew properly the next time he logs in (before you go uninstalling stuff and reinstalling!) :)

No, the detect thing is fine. I like that. It's always worked fine before without problems. Like I said, I think I changed my default style in my control panel to mobile by mistake. And since there is no option to change styles in the control panel in the mobile style, I'm stuck with it. However, I'll try clearing cache.

Is it possible an admin can change the default style for me for my account? I know you can do that with other forum APIs.

EDIT: Clearing cache didn't help.

Weird. Glad it was an easy fix (and no uninstalls or anything needed to happen!)

I deactivated the mobile style so it no longer shows in the themes list. The Switch link still works. The mobile detection should still work. Anyone logging in with a mobile let me know if it does not automatically load.
