I just installed a new theme on my board but the plugins are not showing up. What do I need to do?

de-activate AND re-activate all the plugins one by one ...

Or if you an advanced user, just search the "Variables" the installed plugins using and paste them on the new theme's templates. In this case you wouldn't lose the seetings you set for each plugin's configuration.

Thanks for the super fast response

Can you please explain this a bit more, Yaldaram?

dzchimp, if you didn't understand what I've said then you can safely do what ranjani posted above mine.

Certain plugins edits the template and ads a variable to it (variable is a function defined in the plugin in this case which is added in template at desired position). For example, like custom plugin inserts {$variable_name_here} type of variables in templates.

Ah. I got it, thanks. I've been adding my custom ones in $lang, and using them in my templates after evaluating custom templates via functions_post.php. I rather thought it was about the database, that's why I asked.
