NodeBB broken after installing a theme!

codejet

@So-Confused theme's are pretty easy to just revert back to the original setup..

You can even completely remove both vanilla and lavender and then npm install nodebb-theme-* again at the git prompt

look for the git command to re-pull / fetch the entire branch again if you fear you have messed up core templates

I already tried to uninstall and now my site won't even load.

Whats the command? I tried git clone https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB.git but it didnt change anything.

I get no errors when I run ./nodebb start

Try running ./nodebb dev it should show any errors.

Scuzz

I think the Tron theme is not compatible with the latest version of NodeBB.

So Confused

Ok thanks guys, I got it working.

Now, why can't I install vanilla theme? I want to install pewter but I get this every time:

@So-Confused I believe Pewter is incomptible with the newest versions of NodeBB, though. @psychobunny would have a better idea about that one

a_5mith

Yeah its not compatible. I don't even think the theme was finished for the version it was built for.

I had better success with ./nodebb reset -t

pichalite

@henrywright that's because the commands changed recently.

./nodebb reset theme was valid at the time
