Hey guys, you look really smart on computers so could you help me out? I installed a new skin onto my forums that was apparently bugged or something. so whenever I try to log in as admin (having already chosen to wear the new skin as an option) I get the following message:

phpBB : Critical Error

Could not get theme data for themes_id [127]


the only way to fix this I believe is to remove the new skin, but if none of the admins including myself can log in to fix this, wtf are we supposed to do


thanks for ur help guys.

p.s. I have seen many other reported cases on the net so its not a unique sort of problem

I see your using a phpbb board. Do you have access to your database? There would be a way to change the default skin in there also.

At the moment I don't know how to get to the database without logging on as admin and going directly to the panel

Well, if you have direct access to your server cpanel, or whatever program , there will be a link for your sql database in there. What is the link for your site?

It's one of the free hosted ones so I wasn't expecting much, but they should have had direct links to admin panels or something to prevent this lol, i'm looking now on their site to see if I can log in somewhere safely

There should be a place to get into your database hopefully. Are you unable to login to your site as it is right now? You may wanna try clearing your cookies and temp files. Atlest you would be able to see it then.

I know how to fix it but I am simply unable to log in as admin and remove the skin from the forum choices. However all the members who have no yet chosen that skin choice are having no problems at all
