If anyone here is willing to install TP for me then please let me know. I will make a donation if needed to whoever can get it done correctly for me.

Thanks

Shoot me a PM if the manual install isn't for you. I'd be willing to help out.

IchBin- I don't see a PM button anywhere for you.

I would like to be able to use my current theme if anyway possible.

Thanks,
Savage

Ah yes, we have turned off PM's for users with less than 5 posts I think. Just spam a few more times and you can PM me. :)

Ken beat me to it. :)

Ok, it should be all installed now. You'll now have to go through TinyPortal and make it do what you'd like. There was an error on the frontpage, because you had a module in the frontpage settings it was set to show a TPModule, yet there was no module selected.

As for what I had to do. It appears that you installed simple portal previously. Apparently when you removed it, it didn't remove all the code from the files. I had to go through and replace all your SMF files to reset all the files to new. Then the install went as smooth as it could have through the package manager.

If you want to continue to use the Alienation theme, you'll need to make sure you download the TP version of the theme, as it will appear that you have 2 side panels on one side of the theme. Most SMF theme should work with TP 1.x without modification, with the exception of adding a Forum button. However, you'll find most themes are already on this site. And if they are not, then you can request in Crips board and I'm sure he'll hook you up. :)

Any questions, feel free to ask. But please open another topic if the issue is not related to your installation issues in this topic. We like to keep issues separate in topics so its easier to find things when searching. Cheers!
