I am receiving a blank page after changing my phpBB theme.

In order to reset your phpBB2 template to the default one, you should run two MySQL queries through the phpMyAdmin tool. Go to your cPanel and click on phpMyAdmin from the Databases box.

Once in phpMyAdmin, choose the phpBB2 database from the drop-down menu at left. Then open the SQL tab and paste the following queries in the text field:

  • UPDATE phpbb_config SET config_value = '1' WHERE config_name = 'default_style';
  • UPDATE phpbb_config SET config_value = '1' WHERE config_name = 'override_user_style';

Click on Submit. This will submit your query. Flush your browser cache by deleting the temporary files and cookies. Try to access your forum and you will see that it is using the default template.
