Default Skin Restoration

Hello all,

I was working on skinning xcart on a test server before moving it onto the actual server it will be used on. After I installed X-cart onto the new server from scratch, I then imported the sql dump from the development server onto the new server overwriting everything. I then changed the blowfish code in config.php so it would decrypt the database entrys ok.

All is fine, except it was using the 2 columb 'blue' standard skin1 template. I copied the skin1 folder from the test server, and overwrote the skin1 folder on the new server and nothing happens? When I go through the Admin panel on the new server, and take a look a the template section - my templates are actually all there but the store chooses not to use them and instead renders the store in the default 'blue' theme?

Is there something I am doing wrong, as far as I can see the default templates are now gone and replaced with my own edited files from the test server. Skin1_original folder is still there - I renamed it just incase it was reverting back to it to serve the files but this wasn't the case!

Any help would be appreciated on this

Thanks

Welcome to the X-Cart forums! Please start by reading the following thread, which will help you get started and hopefully make your experience here a positive one:

Please note that this link is not an answer to your question, but we need you to update your signature with your X-Cart version so that we can answer your questions correctly.

If you are using 4.1.x, you should go into your Summary/Tools menu and use the 'clear template cache' option - your old skin is most likely cached.
