Changing template graphics & files not permitted - Joomla! Forum - community, help and support
i've installed number of templates trying find half reasonable , have found interesting scenario.
you cannot uninstall / delete or change template once installed !
i found 1 particular template thought adequate , wanted change graphics logo etc suit.
not permirtted ftp client, cpanel file manager, or other method.
to make changes had change files in template install file on pc - rename it, and install via joomla template installation.
if need make more changes, need offline, , install copy of template.
i have 9 copies of particular template trying logo , colors etc work.
i cannot delete or remove excess can backup database, remove joomla completely, reinstall addons , bits needed, install finished template , hope never have change again
i assumed lack of response unfixable problem.
i had provider remove files , folders me find problem returns - yet again.
unfortunately makes remote development of site impossible.
i spoke site owner , experienced similar , other problems regarding access permissions of files etc. when tried joomla.
at least know not me or provider.
solution: remove joomla.
i switched modx on main site moment, @ least lets me customise suit using old html & css templates.
i'll still play around joomla @ home while interests sake, , transfer data. if ever find out why locks out changes, i'll let know.
thanks anyway.
