It is usually impossible to have an older version of TP compatable with a new release of SMF, in this case TP 9.6 was written before SMF 1.1 Final was released.
So YES, restore to SMF 1.1 RC3, and wait for new version of TP to be compatable with that. Also Themes will need to be made compatable with the new version of SMF.

Why are you downgradeing your forum in the first place to smf 1.1?  Just asking.

smf 1.1 RC3 is awesome....this version can have TP to install!

1.1 is the final

RC = release candidate of 1.1 (like a beta)

currently 1.1 Final of SMf is only available to chartered members
TP0.97 will be compatible with it when it is released

Shadow, the Downgrade is from SMF 1.1 FINAL to SMF 1.1 RC3.
Whenever a new version of SMF is released, it always takes a few days or even weeks for other Mods (like TP) and themes to be updated to be compatable with the new version of SMF.
It is ussually a bad idea to jump in an upgrade your SMF version if you have Mods installed and use something other than the default SMF theme.

yup agreed with bob - its best to wait

however in most cases the mods work after a simple changing of version numbers in the mods but more advanced mods wont work that way

so best to wait it out

im estimating ill wait 2 weeks before upgrading to 1.1 after it is officially released to gen public

Wow didnt know it was out lol last i checked it wasnt :up: thanks for letting me know

Alright, So RC3 isn't the FINAL of SMF.  Which one is better SMF 1.1 RC3 or SMF 1.1 the FINAL version of it?

We can do more to SMF 1.1 then SMF 1.1 RC3 right?

Yes, I know all the mod's and anther thing's have to upgrade to SMF 1.1...

I'm sorry if i keep asking thing's.

As a Charter member I too agree with BorgBoBB..
cuz there are some changes in each default template, I have smf-fin11 but my forum does contain any mods just yet..I'm just patiently waiting for Mr. Bloc's TP release. :)

SMF 1.1 Final will not have new features, but it will be the Final Stable version in the SMF 1.1 line.

SMF 1.1 Final should have no errors generated by it's code in the widest possible variety of  installation set-ups. (Different hosts / versions of PHP and sql databases on the server, ect.)

But anytime code is changed, if you are using SMF on a live active site, there is a chance some Mods will not work. SO it's best to set-up a duplicate test site to your live site and test updates/upgrades/ and new mods there first. Unless you are very familiar with PHP and can correct any errors you encounter. If not, best to wait for Mod writers (Like Bloc) to release compatable updates for thier Mods/themes.

SMF 1.1 seems to work OK with TP 0.9.7 under testing now.

It' s my opinion that TP 0.9.6 will work OK too. However it is not tried.

If someone is a SMF charter member and wants have a try, I have a modified file package-info.xml for TP 0.9.6 that will work with SMF 1.1 package manager.

You will have to replace the existing the existing package-info.xml in the install package for TP 0.9.6.

Warning: This file is for test only and not for being used in a working forum.  Use it at your own risk.

Do it only if you are experienced with SMF and TP. And of course there will be no support until the SMF 1.1 compatible TP version will be released.

Edit: I reuploaded the file.

Post by: SleePy on December 02, 2006, 05:04:31 PM
I just opened up tp 0.9.6 and added it to install for 1.1
It is working just fine..

Not many changes between 1.1 RC3 and 1.1 Final.. Really only bug fixes is what you are seeing..

Oh well. Still going to give it time before I do it on my real site just incase bloc releases 0.9.7 to go with 1.1 Final..

There's not enough changes in the 1.1 Final release that things shouldn't work IMO. It's just a matter of adding in the proper info to the packages for Mods to work. No majore changes necessary.

I too believe so, at least for most mods. There are quite a few however  :laugh:  so some precautions are necessary.

Ah. I thought that file was for .096. I made the mistake of upgrading too early I guess. SMF 1.1 is not showing the tinyportal. Well, let me know when it's ready. :)
