omg help plz , i screwed something up

[Tron420]

im using - smf 1.1 and tp 9.6


everytime i add a tp 1.1 theme, the tp blocks never show up. why is this?

i cant even get the tp blocks to show with the smf default theme. but they work with helio multi.
i had to reinstall the default theme but now the tp blocks arent showing on the default theme.

Thats because the edits to the index.template.php file have been over written or some sort of thing.

hmm alot of tp themes for smf 1.1 arent showing tp blocks. is there a file i need to edit for these themes?

If you were running SMF 1.1 RCx with TP 0.96, then upgraded to SMF 1.1 Final, that will overwrite the TP code in some files. If you now install TP 0.97, it will restore the code in the SMF 1.1 files and TP should function normally.

im running SMF 1.1 final and TP 9.6
(i really dont wanna upgrade to 9.7 and lose all my stuff .)

the problem isnt just the default theme , but alot of themes that say there for 1.1 final and tp.

You won't lose all your stuff. Do a backup anyway, but the database remains intact.

oh i didnt realize that.. so if i upgrade to 9.7 i wont have to reinstall any mods ( arcade etc) and my themes should work?

I don't know about your mods - it depends on what they are and to which files. But going forward to 0.97 is by far your best option. After you've done that, all SMF 1.1 Final TP themes should work and you can then fix any mod issues.

You should uninstall them to be on the safe side.After the upgrade all my mods and themes work.Including the arcade.

how exactly do i upgrade from 9.6 to 9.7?
what are the benefits?
