How do I manually change back to my old theme after changing to a new theme that made the site unavailable? I tried out the Valentine theme and must have done something wrong... now I can't access the settings screen to change back again...
Aha! I found out how to do it - seems like there is a lot of people having theme trouble this week and here's a solution to do it manually:

Hi
Two methods.
1] Take a theme that works, say PostNuke and copy the theme folder. Then rename the theme folder that broke, to say BROKEN. Rename the copied PostNuke theme folder to the name of the broken theme and reload your site.
2] SEARCH the forums for postnuke Swiss Army Knife.
Cheers

Well, I have to say editing the MySQL file directly was really easy with the info given in the thread I listed above. I'm not sure I'd be comfortable with any solution that involved reloading the entire site! I have hacked too many small errors and personalised so many extra bits I don't want to spend six hours doing it all again when a five minute fix is all that is needed. But thanks for your suggestion - it's always worth having more than one!
