Is it possible to keep the current skin settings for the users, after updating DA.
Because now when I update all skins are set back to default.

Hello,

We only update our own skins. If you're editing our, that would explain it. Make sure to copy the "default" directory to a new skin name and edit your own copy so that it won't be overwritten:

cd /usr/local/directadmin/data/skins
cp -R default yourskin
cd yourskin
#edit whatever you want

The skin "yourskin" should now show up in the skins list.

I have done that, but it puts back the standart default skin setting within the packages.

So i have to change them back to my new skin (witch is in a new Dir).

Hello,

Updates don't touch the packages.

Hmm still the skin is changed back to the default skin after updating, even when i have my own skin in place.

If your skin name is "default" it will get overwritten since thats the directory the default skin is usually in:

/usr/local/directadmin/data/skins/default

If your skin is in a different directory to that, then it should not be affected.
