How to uninstall the eXtreme Styles mod 2 (MOD Version: 2.2.1) that is necessary for the phpbb2 MorpheusX style template.
I am writing this in the hope of saving others from a major disaster.
Before doing anything, regardless how confident you feel, computers are unpredictable. TAKE A BACKUP! Back up the database and the files of your forum.
The ONLY way to uninstall this mod, is to upload a certain template.php file in the directory includes/ of your forum (it will overwrite the existing one). This certain file is included in the directory xs_mod.221\contrib\uninstall in the zip file you downloaded before installing it.
The eXtreme Styles mod will make some modifications in the sql database by adding a few entries to the 'phpbb_config' table. These entries will be ignored when the mod is no longer installed but I am trying to find out now if we can safely remove them. Also the mods files should also logically be removed, don’t do it, unless I confirm here that its safe. And after doing it, I can confirm that it is safe to remove/delete them.
