Themes... Broken and non-removable.
Permalink
Hi, I've searched the forums and didn't see an answer for this, I hope someone can help.
I just started working with C5 and find it amazing. During the learning process I installed a couple of themes I found on the web and proceeded to see what made them tick. In the process up uploading, renaming and changing the files I had a bunch of test page types and themes.
I've now created a set of themes I like and I wanted to clean up all my test content. I deleted all the pages on the site (and set the home page to the default theme).
Then I removed the themes from inside the Dashboard. The site generated an error when I tried to remove 2 of the old themes. So I deleted the folders via SFTP. The dashboard still shows the themes there and now they don't have remove buttons. I went into the page type interface and removed all the page types I no longer am using (those associated with themes I wish to delete). Even though the home page is themed with a default theme I can't remove one of my custom page types (I'm guessing the "sidebar2" data is still in the DB somewhere).
Long story short, how can I remove the old themes (so my client isn't looking at junk) or return the site to it's new born condition? I am currently using c5 for my hosting (I didn't set up the CMS).
Thanks for any help.

... but I couldn't seem to find a "email member" link from your profile.
I sent you an email to an address I found online (your first name at concretecms.com) but I have a feeling that was incorrect since I hadn't received a reply.
Could you direct me to the link you wanted me to use a little clearer. Sorry for all the trouble.
Thanks again, I really appreciate you help.

i think you're hinting at the right stuff if that isn't an option tho. Perhaps there's still a page that is lingering with those page types you don't want anymore..
use the email you signed up with to let me know if you want me to wipe your install clean.
