This is getting nowhere.

Do this now.

Download and replace ALL of the SMF files with new ones from the install package from simplemachines.org.

extract the package to your local machine and remove the settings.php and the settings_bak.php from the files.

Upload OVERWRITE all your existing files you have through FTP.

That will give you all fresh SMF files and when you have come that far, install TP first through your package manager with the forum set to use Default SMF Core theme and english language ( not utf )

Now you refresh your forum and TP will probably be ok now.
Next step for you is to add the other mods you have and want, start with the next biggest one and then the next until you have the things you want installed.

Now you can set your forum to use the theme you want, make sure it's a TP theme or else you will not be able to see TP again.

G6,
I will do this if it doesn't mean I lose my forum content.

G6Cad

No, all of the forum content are saved in the database, you just replace the files ( thats why i wrote yopu remove the settings.php and settings_bak.php before you upload the files. You need to leave these files alone on the server as all your settings are stored in there)

I had no freaking idea how to reinstall the files and such. I did try to learn for a couple hours. I used Fantastico to install them at Siteground. I decided to work your Mod Instructions backwards to remove all the TP stuff. It took awhile but it seems like it worked. I am having one error with the an old shoutbox mod that seems to still be lurking somewhere. I get a Sources/Load/Php error about line 1137 and an error in the Babylon theme. Maybe it's unrelated. Hell, if I know.

Anyway, mark the this topic as solved so it doesn't linger on here.

Just noticed something in your first post that i didnt see before.

This line here
Quote5.    SMF 1.0.12 / 1.1.4 / 2.0 b1.1 Update

Are you running SMF 2 beta ? 

Dragooon

Actually it is a common upgrade for 1.0.12/1.1.4/2.0 Beta 1.1 so I don't think so he will be.
