Is there a way to force everyone over to one theme in MyBB? Instead of going in one-by-one and changing the theme.

In you Admin Cp, Theme -> Modify/Delete -> Set the default theme. Then, in the Allowed Usergroups, mark the group that should be using this theme. Then restrict other themes to Administrators, for example.

N.B. Please post anything related to themes and templates in the appropriate forum, next time.

I think he means switching the users over to a specific theme, not what they're allowed to change. The only way to do this at this time is with a SQL query in phpMyAdmin or similar:

UPDATE mybb_users SET style='X'

You can change X to 0 (zero) to switch everybody to the forum default theme, or alternatively you can enter the ID of a theme.

The general support forum is actually the correct place for this type of question because it is about the general usage of MyBB, not a specific customization of the theme/templates.

Thanks a bunch mate. That did it.
