selected theme not the active theme

Post by kingemilyc »

I'm new to Serendipity, know some CSS and XHTML, and could some help. I went through the installation process, and it seems to be installed successfully on my website, http://emilyking.me/blog/. Ultimately, I'd like it to fit in the layout of my site. So, I went to the Serendipity admin platform, and chose a theme that I'd like to start working with. My plan is to then locate the theme's files and edit it with CSS/xhtml to make it match my website.

The problem is, that the selected theme in the serendipity admin is not showing up as the active theme on the website! Any idea why?

Thanks! :D

What template/theme did you select? Did you refresh your browser after returning to the front end?

Bulletproof, and I also tried applying another one too (don't remember which) to see if it was an error in the template, but no changes. Yes, I've refreshed.. Thanks.

I just tried another (Coffee Up) and it worked. No idea why Bulletproof wasn't working. Thank you for your help.

Bulletproof was working just fine before you changed it.
