inherited

I have inherited the settings for a forum from another forum, but there is a difference in the look between the two. How is that possible? I made changes to the template, but it shouldn't matter whether I select to inherit the template, or if I go the cutomize way (choosing the same template in any case)

And how does this all relate to the default template setting?

how about telling us WHAT the difference in the look is or show us a url to check it out.

default settings are only used for new forums and if a forum is set to inherit from these settings.

You should also try a hard refresh (CTRL-F5 or SHIFT-F5 depending on browser) as the browser may try to cache your old template settings.

oh and as we are in the 5.1-forums. inheritance had some bugs in 5.1 AFAIK but got far better in 5.2.

Sorry for not being more specific - just thought the answer may be straight forward in that I did something wrong. And Joe you were quite correct - a hard refresh did it :) I got real worried there. Would it not be better to force the browser to not cache the template settings?

Thanks anyway.
