    I have now twice tried to change my pink control panel theme and both times I have received an error. What I have done is upload the theme to the cp_theme folder, logged into my control panel, gone to my profile and chosen the theme from the drop down list from Control Panel Theme. After clicking on update, I go to any other control panel page and I receive an error. The only way to gain control of the control panel both times was to delete the theme that I uploaded. What am I doing wrong?

    Either there is a super easy answer to this question (which I can not find via forum or wiki), or everyone is ignoring me.

    I was reciving an error about parent_ something. I can no longer see it as I deleted the theme from my cp_theme online folder. It scares the heck out of me not being able to access the control panel.

    I was trying to change the theme by uploading it into the cp_theme folder and then choosing it from my profile page. It that the correct way to change a theme? Or am I missing something?

    This must be a very hard question to answer. I am surprised that no one has responded. I know a lot of people do not like the regular cp theme and must have changed it.

    I deleted the theme in question, but do not know what went wrong. If I can know that I might be able to actually change the pink theme. Can anyone out there tell me how they changed their Control Panel Theme? Was it when installing their system only? Or can it be changed afterward?

    I actually expect that when I pay for a product that I will get each and every question on the company forum answered. I now have two questions that have not been answered.  What makes some questions answerable and some not? All questions on these forums should be answered and in the order they are posted.

    My question still stands, how do I change the pink CP theme?

    Does anyone out there know how to change the pink CP theme?
