Where can I find the files of a duplicated theme?

Hi,

I’ve been using Textpattern for a few days now and I am really liking it.

Most of the time I have spend in customizing the default theme to my own liking (made a duplicate using the build in theme manager). But just now when I tried to install the Markdown plugin (https://plugins.textpattern.com/plugins/wet_textfilter_markdown) which did not work, I deleted the plugin again and after logging in again, the installation broke with a bunch of errors. I logged in to my Hostinger account to (try to) fix some of the errors. This failed and so I tried re-installing the whole package using the web host package installer but this did not work. Since I was only in the ‘theming’ phase I did not make ant backups yet.

I am not looking into fixing the errors but I want to retrieve the theme files because that most of my time has gone into editing that.

But I can’t seem to find the theme files on the web hosts file manager; I have checked the theme folder and almost any other folder on the host but I don’t see anything similair to what I have made.

Where can I get the duplicated theme from?

Were you working on the theme from inside TextPattern or via files in the directory tree?

From what I understand after reading that, I have a database theme. But my MySQL got screwed up as well so I don’t have the db anymore. Guess I’ll have to start all over. Luckily enough it was quite easy to set up in the first place and now thanks to your link I know how to export the theme to disk.

Thanks!
