Garbage displayed in General Settings

[GamblerZ]

Forum Actions > General Settings I am getting nothing but a garbled page. I am just using the stock template setup. The only change has been the colors. Ideas?

Can we see an image of what is up?

Looks like your CSS is all screwed up.

Create a new style with no parent:

• Styles & Templates > Style Manager > Add New Style
• Parent Style: No Parent Style
• Title: Default vBulletin
• Allow User Selection: Yes
• Save

Then browse that page using that totally default vbulletin style - do you still have the same problem?

[GamblerZ]

Still having the problem

What was the last modification/s you did/undid to your forum prior to that happening?

[Lynne]

Try disabling your modifications/plugins and see if you still have this problem.
Note: To temporarily disable the plugin system, edit includes/config.php and add this line right under <?php

PHP Code:

define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);

That was it! It turned out that I had a couple of stale/obsolete plug-ins installed. I just uninstalled them and everything is fine again.

Thank you so much for helping me with this, as I am not very programmer literate and was beginning to panic.
