Issue:
After updating/installing the PHPBB, you are going to usually install a style, this process is relatively intuitive, yet when you end up on the list of installed styles, now it is not intuitive on how to switch between the styles:
- You deactivate the old/default style, weird you are not allowed, you have to activate new style (intuitive would be if phpbb prompt user to select new active /default style)
- You have to go to details of a new style and set it as a default (it takes time to figure out it is hidden under new style "details" instead of on the style list page)
- still you can not see the new style on the home page (despite it is set as default), weird, you have to deactivate old style to move users to new style (per my understanding). Even if i can switch the style on a different place of the PHPBB, it should be possible to do this right on the style list page in more newbie user friendly manner:
Idea:
For example buttons to operate with the styles may be on the style list page and may be named a bit differently to be easier understood. Like for example some table with columns:
stylename | ... | set as default for all users | enable(make it available) | disable(hide from users) | uninstall (unlike it works now, it can automatically deactivate the style and ask deletion of the files

idea for buttons right on the style list page sounds solid. It would make things way simpler to manage, especially if they could handle activation, deactivation, and even uninstallation more smoothly.
