No theme is one theme

[cogmios]

If you have no themes at all it still says:

"You only have one theme installed right now. Live a little!"

Diff file to patch the bug

[ldebrouwer]

The diff file attached above checks whether a theme is installed. If not it displays a message prompting the user to install one. It also displays a friendly message when the current theme has been removed or misplaced but alternate themes are available so the user know he/she has to switch to a working theme.

Hey Luc, tickets are closed as fixed once the patch is committed.

[ldebrouwer]

Ok thanks, sorry for the n00b action in that case :)

Given that the whole of Wordpress falls over when there are no themes, wouldn't it be better to put that notice say on the dashboard instead of in themes.php?

[ldebrouwer]

I guess so but that doesn't take away the fact that it should be stated on the themes page as well.

simpler patch with wording from original patch.

[MikeHansenMe]

added a new patch to accomplish the same as the original patch. This raised a question for me while viewing the themes page after the theme directory had been removed.

Should we remove the "Current Theme" section when no themes exist? (I think so)

[MikeHansenMe]

current theme section, after removing all themes from directory.

I imagine a lot has changed here as of 3.8...

Patch to fix the warning in previous screenshot

I think the current status with no themes is about as good as it get considering the problem. I think this ticket is ready to close.
