These are not really templates. Only new stylesheets. To delete them go into your admin-center -> forum layout -> style sheets and delete it.

Ok, thats right. Are you sure, you make it correct ?

Hi ThM,

I get it running:

We have two Templates, "default" and "i4a". The
default-Template is a modifyed template, not
original.
When I changed to i4a I can't get back to default.
I think, it's a cookie-"Problem"?

Greetings
Mick

Hi ThM,

sorry for late answer, had a lot to do

The link:

http://www.info4alien.de/cgi-bin/134/YaBB.cgi

It's a test-board!

In my main.pl is written:

%tempswitcheroptions = (
'0' => 'Template wählen:',
'1' => '=> Auswahl',
'2' => '» i4a-Blue',
'3' => '» i4a-Style',
);

$yystyleswitch = qq~$tempswitcheroptions{'0'} ~;
$yytempswitcher = qq~<form name="styleswitcher">
	<select onChange="if(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value) window.location.href='$scripturl' + this.options[this.selectedIndex].value;">
	<option value="">$tempswitcheroptions{'1'}</option>
	<option value="?template=i4a-blue">$tempswitcheroptions{'2'}</option>
	<option value="?template=i4a">$tempswitcheroptions{'3'}</option>
	</select>
	</form>~;
 

i4a-blue.css and i4a.css are online.
