Title: "Settings" and "Block Manager" links missing
Post by: DDDooGGG on April 16, 2008, 10:19:44 AM
I have installed TinyPortal v1.0.5 beta over SMF 1.1.4, all seems to run fine. When i go into SMF Admin, i can see the TinyPortal section in the admin menu, except its missing the "Settings" and "Block Manager" links.

What file will i need to check to put these links in?

what is the url i can put in my address bar manually to get to both the settings and block manager?

thanks,

Fult.

This issue has been covered several times DDDooGGG, if you do a search you'll find some good answers... you can also find lots of information if you look in our Docs section.


Try this for the url:
?action=tpadmin;sa=blocks

Hi, i found that the settings and block links are displayed on my frontpage, so i can now get to them. I looked through the FAQs and Support forums here but was unable to find anything to assist me, anywy, its all good now.

Try a search for "missing text".

You'll need to have those missing control panel links for a variety of management functions so you should fix them.

I saw that and i did have my  Default Forum Language set to English. I looked at Installing UTF-8 Language Packs, but didn't know which one to choose from the download page(http://www.tinyportal.net/index.php?action=tpmod;dl=cat693).

I also did the following to no avail:
Admin > Maintenance/Forum Maintenance > Convert HTML-entities to UTF-8 characters

Anyway, i worked out a get around.

thanks for your time;)
