help. i want to reset footer options

[traio]

hi
i'm not much a site builder, but using you'r theme is very easy and it's great! thenks

about the problem
i enterd into the centeral footer zone a long html code (with a div and inside it a from... i'm using lightview plus and wanted to do some cool stuff with it.)
after that the whole options page (of the theme) went crazy, i see all the options-page pages that are below the "Footer Customziation" and even the "submit" button from the FORM..
ughh and i can't delete it and save or do reset the page definitions..


i tryed even reupping the theme to the server over the old theme files.. but it didn't do nothing, cause i guess the defintions are stored somewhere else.

so i really need help fixing it
is the a way to reset that specific footer page? if i do a full reset of options will it do the trick?

Thenks for the great theme, and sorry about my bad english

If I am not wrong, the stuff you entered will be stored in the wordpress-options-table, there are some options, named " suf_footer_left" etc.

you could do the following:

1. IMPORTANT: Do a backup of WordPress either with PHPMyAdmin if you have access or using a Wordpress-Backup-Plugin which backups your wordpress-tables
2. open the table wp_options or whatever it is called, eventually with a prefix in PHPMyAdmin
3. clear the entries in the option " suf_footer_left" and "suf_footer_center" and if there as well, "suf_footer_right" (I am not quite sure in the moment)

check if everything is ok, if so ignore the following radical suggestion (and please don't take me responsible)

========================================================================================================
I suggest the following which is a radical cure and you should be very careful with that because you will loose ALL suffusion-options:

- activate the default template
- uninstall the suffusion template, by uninstalling all stored options should be deleted from the database
- clear the cache
- delete all suffusion files in the folder wp-content/themes/suffusion if there are some left
- re-install suffusion

Thenks for the help

as i'v said.. i'm not much of a site builder. i don't know how to get to Phpmyadmin to work with the table..
how can i get there? or do i need to speak with the server owner?

ok
i used the option: "reset settings for all pages" from a diffrent page (not footer customization)
and it worked.
i now have to change back the settings in the other pages but at least its working ok now
thenks for the help

yes, "reset settings" would have done also, but my first suggestion was to clear the footer only..

but one consolidation: you will be more secure and savy when you re-work your settings-.. that is not irony, that is my experience!

yeah, i'm sure its a better advice, and i will try it anyway. i'll talk with my provider and ask how to do it.
thenks alot for the help, and the advice
