Total Fatal over 0.97 install

I've tried to install the new version and it's failed on nearly every change or page to update during the package upgrade. This has happened on both of my forums.

Anyone knows why?

Are you installing on the smf default Theme?

No, on the Manuscript theme.

1st you must be on default theme when ever installing mods bro. Second certain files and folders require chmoding make sure that you do that as well. Also copy and paste what its showing you when you attempt install

I have always installed thing on their Manuscript and never get problems.

goto those files that failed and make sure they are writable 777 also make sure your on the default theme that is very important when installing mods. Also you dont have tp already installed do you? if so youll have to uninstall it and use a different method for installing it.

bro default theme contains all of the templates where as manuscript does not the only reason you were successful before was because you got lucky im sorry lol.

Before updating be sure that all folders and files have the permission 775 which can be set with your ftp program (chmod).

Also be sure using the default smf theme and english as default language.

I know this is just what Crip and StrmLrd said but i think it would be good to repeat it.

I just uninstalled the old one and replaced with the new one. I think in future I will only upgrade when there's actually new features. It would be easier.
