Hi,

I am very new to drupal so please excuse my simplicity. I have recently downloaded the 'pixture' theme which works fine. To change the colour of the theme i installed the 'Theme Settings API' module as directed. However, i cant seem to get the colour to change.

Is the module saved in the wrong place (sites/all/modules/themesettingsapi)?

I would be very greatful for any help as i am really stuck.

Thanks in advance,
Ben

The module is uploaded to the correct folder.

goto administer -> themes
click on the configure tab
click on the pixture reloaded tab

now at the top of the page you should see the ability to change the colors

if not insure you have the color module enabled in administer -> modules

Thanks for your help. I have tried this previously and it still doesnt work.

When i change the colour scheme and click on save configuartion it reads:

The configuration options have been saved.
The directory files/color/pixture-df65b10f has been created.

However the colour still remains the same.

Any ideas?

Thank so much,
Ben

How do you clear the cache? My caching mode was disabled so i have changed it to normal. Still no joy.

my apologies, I lost track of what version you were using. D6 you can clear the cache from the admin area.

you can can clear the cache tables manually, though for someone not familiar with working with the DB directly may choose to install the devel.module which provides a button to clear the cache.

I"d also clear my browser cache ie: temp internet files and the like. Have you tried from another browser?

have you checked the server to insure that the files drupal said it was creaing above are indeed in the folder it lists?

What is the exact version # of the theme you have installed ?
