Title: TinyPortal v0.7.4 release
Post by: bloc on October 03, 2005, 05:54:23 PM
This is a new release for all beta-testers to try out. Do backups, and be sure to test it out on non-important sites first - if you can.

Features:
these things are now in:

..plus numerous other bugfixes and small enhancements. The install/upgrade routines now check if you are missing any tables or settings, and updates accordingly.

Languages:
For languages to use with this package, see this thread:
http://www.tinyportal.net/smf/index.php?topic=867.0

Manual installation:
http://www.tinyportal.net/smf/index.php?topic=927.0

Possible problems:
- On RC1 sometimes the TP files will not get copied through package manager. the mod seem to install fine, but you get a error screen when starting the forum again. in that case, use the manual install files and upload the TP files. Most cases the SMF files are correctly modified and database tables installed. Only the TP files are wrong.

- failure on installation of TinyPortal. As a rule: don't install it if failure shows up, TP will most likely not work and/or the forum stop working because of incomplete installation. Most usual are failure in index.template.php - in that case you could get away with installing a TP specific theme and use that, or upload a un-modified index.template for your SMF installation.

As always, any feedback is appreciated. :)

Is this an upgrade or is it a standalone?

I am using the previous version.  Can I download this through package manager while my other one is installed?

Please post your errors in a different thread. It will be easier to keep track of errors and how they happen. And more importantly, how they are fixed. Bloc I think you should lock your TP threads for this reason. :)

This will be my first upgrade.  I will be upgrading from TP 0.6.5.

What method should I use to upgrade to TP 0.7.4?

Manual?  Package Manager?

I upgraded through the package manager without any problems, though it was an upgrade from TP 0.7.3, I'm not sure if you can upgrade from 0.6.5 through the package manager...

Mine is working fine now also.

Title: Re: TinyPortal v0.7.4 release
Post by: bloc on October 04, 2005, 01:04:47 AM
This release will:

- upgrade from any previous TP version 0.4 up to 0.7.3 :)
- install first time on any SMF version

The only time you need to upload the files manually(the second archive) is when you have problems like mentioned above. For some reason TP files sometimes will be zero in size - and give errors.

ghostfreak, bogus - check that TP files is indeed there, and that they are not 0 in size. If they are missing/0 in size, use the second archive to simply upload the files through ftp.

All,

upgrade from 0.65 to 0.74 with success.

failure in index.template.php was shown and i ignore that ( no risk no fun ) After that all my frontpage settings are gone. But it is only an issue from the new structure in 0.74 .... i mean

After edit the blocks and the settings for the frontpage my site looks like bevor.

Have a look: www.kite-lounge.com

Only Problem: The calendar.....as bevor. I can not edit the fixed entrys for the american "holy days" like the labor day. in the calendar.php i can not found the entrys. So i think this days are located in another file.

Cheers

Hi  :)

Great work Bloc, many thanks.

I upgraded from SMF 1.1 Beta 3 to RC1, then applied TP 0.7.4 via package manager.

Nice and smooth, everything went well and boards are working just fine.

i found an odd little bug. xD

it seem sthat if you cahnge your theme with the themechanger block, it doesn't save it. so if i was using default and then i switched to blue101 using the block, once the session ends (log out, browser close) and i go back to the site, i'm back to default theme again.

any fixes?

Sounds like your overall forum default theme is another one then what you are using
Title: Re: TinyPortal v0.7.4 release

Are you still logged out at your site? Make sure your SMF board is set to default the theme that you want.

Yes, this was forgotten..the old code was replaced, but it needs more work..basically I was planning to add a preview of the theme underneath, that changes when you choose a new one.

ah i see. :)

i was kind of wondering why the theme autochose itself when selected. xD

oh, changing the theme normally through your profile saves the settings. :)

No I'm not un-installing TP first, but a really weird thing has happened.  I have a test site exactly the same as my main site which I obviously use for testing installs/updates etc, and the TP upgrade worked without a hitch.  Its only when I try the upgrage on my main site that the problem occurs.

I assume its down to file permissions - I'll have a check through them.

Neptuen works in bet3 just fine. It also works in RC1, but you will see errors in the error log because Bloc has not updated all of his themes to work properly with RC1.

The only errors i'm getting are the templates. Can't wait to see updates of those :)

I don't see any other problems so far.
