View Full Version : Where is my default skin hiding?

I've got a mess and I need help fixing it. Old posts don't have the answer.

I installed a new skin (Cobalt) and set it up in the Style Manager as #2. For whatever reason, I couldn't switch to it. I kept getting the original vB skin. So I installed a second copy of Cobalt and replaced the original vB skin. Now I've got two copies of Cobalt (default and #2) and everything works just fine. So I delete one of the copies, leaving a new default.

Now all of a sudden, Cobalt is all screwed up. When I click on a link, the entire page shifts to the right about 20 pixels and then shifts back once the page is fully loaded.

Now I want to reinstall the original vB skin. I uploaded the original xml file, added a new style in the Style Manager and choose no parent style. I expected to see the original style and templates. But I've now got the same problem I had before. When I switch between Cobalt (the new default) and the the original vB skin, I get Cobalt either way.

Can anyone tell me what's wrong or at least get me back to the original vB skin so I can start from scratch?

Thanks!
Roger

That's weird. Are you making sure that you have the original vBulletin style actually there and didn't rename cobalt?

Find the solution there (it worked for me as well).
