Wordpress theme reset issue.

Alright, we have been facing this odd problem lately. Every now and then our wordpress theme would switch back to default. We have been looking into this issue and think that we have resolved it by editing wp-setting.php file and commenting out

validate_current_theme(); on line 270

But this is just a temporary fix. Anyone else out there who is experiencing similar issues?

    yep, got the same issue with wordpress 2.2 and a modified version of k2… no clue when it resets, no clue why it does.

    my best idea is replacing the default theme which the currently used one (and name it default too of course). afaik there’s no need of keeping the “orignal” default theme.

    i got about 7 wordpress installs on different servers, but only that one has that strange theme reset issue.

    Yeah that’s what I ended up doing. I guess the next update for Wordpress might fix this issue.

    *fingers crossed*
