Hi All,
I have 2 templates (skins).

I have set the Skin # 1 by default to all users and they can't change it (Users can change skins = NO).

Now I want to assign the Skin # 2 to some users (3 or 4 selected users only).

What value & Where should I change for that in my DATABASE table ?

Note: I have set styleid=2 (This is Skin # 2) for one user.
Then I went to my home page, logged in as that user and refreshed it.
It did not show the changed style. It still shows the default one.

I don't know where else to change it.

I "Think" if you select to allow them to change skins in VB Options

Selectable skin (no) for all but the main skin

you should then be able to edit the users manually

You should never edit the database directly.

There is an option to set the skin for a specific user in the AdminCP (when editing a User - AdminCP > User > Search For User )

If users are not allowed to change styles, then the default will always be forced, regardless of the setting in the user table.

Thank You. I did not notice it till now.

Thank You for the clarification.
