I installed it, but it doesn't work

Do you have TP admin precent in the default theme?
If the install went well and with out errors, what file do you need to complete the install?
If you have tpadmin in default, i suggest you uninstall helios and reinstall the theme, make sure the forum is set to Default SMF core.

No, TPADMIN is not present in any theme that I try to set as default. It looks like I have to start editing the files with the chages you provided in the text file instructions.

JPG's little trick didn't work either.

TP_mod-instructions.txt is what I was referring to as instructions.

I admit I am new but not completely lost.

All green to your forum/sources

That is the files you copy and pate the code in to. Those are done, so upload them and you should be good to go, Some errors can be there as you using 1.1rc3, but it should work to start the portal

Thank you! I will get started on the changes.

As a noobie website admin, thanks heaps for suppling the modded files. For me just to upload files is... well achievable.

Sounds lame, but I have no confidence editing files directly and getting them right.

I did all that now, I have the box where it says tiny portal in the admin section, but still no options, its blank

[jacobselby]

Wait a sec, I'm running SMF 1.1 RC3 now, does that have anything to do with it?

Try using the default theme and see if you can edit things. Give it a shot.

Thanks Mrs G6 for all your help. I made all the changes and was able to get back into the TinyPortal Admin. The changes created several other issues with the Helios theme, so I tried the default theme which worked much better. It almost felt like I had contol again but still had issues with the recent posts listing and some bad icons. It also said I was running SMF 1.1 RC2 after the changes.

The site owner didn't like it and wanted it all changed back for now. He mentioned a new release of TinyPortal and possibly the Helios theme, that is suppose to correct everything. So I guess I will wait and try this again later.
