Title: Blocks Disappear in 1.0.5
Post by: pianoman723 on April 05, 2008, 09:46:02 PM
I hope I'm not repeating someone else's topic here, but I just installed v1.0.5 beta, and the only difference I see is that all my blocks have disappeared!

On my Home page (set to display articles and forum-posts), it leaves blank space on each side where the blocks should be, but on all other pages, there's not even that.

Has anyone else encountered this problem?

When I fell for the joke I saw the same thing- I paniced and went back to 0.9. They were still gone but then noticed at the bottom of each block had ALL Pages in there and took that out and the blocks reappeared. Might be worth trying.

Thanks a bunch delvec - that worked for me too.  What do you mean 'when I feel for the joke?'

Crip - thanks for the tips on installing, I'm a total noob.  I'll do both next time.  Does this mean my upgrade didn't install correctly and I need to go back and do it right?

I just totally reinstalled my smf AND tp 1.0.5, and I get the same problem I had before.  Blocks simply are no more.  I can edit them in Admin, turn them off and on to my heart's content, but they just won't actually show up anywhere.  Anybody know an answer?

Ok, checked and the blocks were not set to show on any board or function.
Admin/TinyPortal/Blocks and panels/
edit the blocks one by one and where it have the red line ( this block is not set to show anywhere) click the edit block and check the catboxes to where you want the blocks to show up.
I turned on the left blocks to show everywhere and they show up and work as they should :)
The rest of the blocks you have to edit your self  :P

Marking this one as solved.

That was my first thought - check the visible options of the blocks. :)

Cool, thanks a bunch guys.  Knew it had to be something simple like that.  Everything's good now, except I can't get my one top block to appear on the home page.  Curious, but ultimately inconsequential I suppose. 

This is how a support forum ought to work.  You guys are champs!
