Is it okay to delete unwanted themes?

I want to delete ALL other themes except the custom theme I am using so users will not have theme options. Is this what I should do?

OR

Can I disable the user selectable theme choices in the user options?

Whats the best way to go about this?

I would disable the user choice options first. Then set your default theme to the one you want to keep. After that, I think you should be safe in deleting the other themes from your site. If you are using 6.0, you may need to set this in your forum as well. 6.5, you should be set with just your admin preferences. Any other takers on this?

All sounds correct Audioslaved, regarding the users he can set everyone's theme to the new default with:

UPDATE nuke_users set user_theme = 'Theme_Name_Here';

Easy way.. Create a new folder, name it something like themes_keep... move all themes not required into new folder, keeping your main default theme in folder, themes... done!!

Is there a way that I can do this in .php file

like create a file called setnewtheme.php
and then edit the code to change the theme for all users?

I have a Fixtheme.php similar to this, but it is for the current user.

Settheme.php TESTED WITH NUKE 6.8 ONLY!!!

This will make everyone have the same, NEW theme, so you can delete all the old themes. (If they have a theme set that is no longer available, then they will get a blank page)

SetTheme.php

Code:

<?php

#####################################################
#####################################################

require("config.php");

$host = $dbhost;
$database = $dbname;
$username = $dbuname;
$password = $dbpass;
$def_theme = "fiblack3d";
mysql_connect($host, $username, $password);
@mysql_select_db($database);

# Change the value of $def_theme to a theme available on your site that works
# Just upload this file to nuke's main dir (where config.php is) and point your browser to

################### BEGIN THE FIX ###################

mysql_query("update ".$prefix."_users set theme='$def_theme'");
mysql_query("update ".$prefix."_config set Default_Theme='$def_theme'");
echo "Go back to your <a href=\"index.php\">website</a>.";
?>

Hope this helps someone.
