Not just the portal or the forum, but the whole package,
Bloc and the support from him, allways nice even if he probably never sleeps to get this working for us, i havent even read a bad word from him in any of the posts here,
The moderators that give us the needle pin to get our forum just the way we like and help us finding out the bugs and how to solve them like YESTERDAY, all the people in here provide something, 99% always nice and friendly tone from the people in here...

Do i have to say more ?

Here's what you need to do if you can't use the package manager.
1. run the manual_install file. (which you did) <--- This installs the database tables for TP only.
3. Copy the "Files Only" package to your website. (everything is already put in folders for you, so you know where they go.)
2. you need to look at the tp-mod_instructions.txt.... Everything in that file that is related to the changes to index.php, Load.php, Subs.php and Security.php you'll have to add manually by copy and pasting the code.
3. Once you have done that, install a TP theme from Bloc's download section. Make it default for your forum and you should see that TP is now a part of your SMF forum.

I'm having trouble with #1.

When I try to run manual_tp_install.php or 1139149106manual_tp_install.php manually, I get this error message, it shows up about 100 times (estimated):

Warning: mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in W:\www\kaitech.hk\forums\manual_tp_install.php on line 134

Now starting from line 132, the code is:

Code Select Expand

foreach($settings_array as $what => $val){
        $sjekk=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM {$new_prefix}settings WHERE name='$what'");
        if(mysql_num_rows($sjekk)<1){
                 mysql_query("INSERT INTO {$new_prefix}settings (name,value) VALUES ( '$what', '$val')");
        }
        elseif(mysql_num_rows($sjekk)>0 && $what=='version'){
                 mysql_query("UPDATE {$new_prefix}settings SET value='$val' WHERE name='$what'");
                echo '<ul><li>Updated version to '.$val.'</li></ul>';
                 mysql_free_result($sjekk);
        }

Any ideas what to try at this point?  I'm running this on a test server locally. Could it be related to my PHP settings?  I'm running php 4.4.0 with Apache 2.0.

On a fresh install of RC2 + TP86 the installation via package manager went smoothly.  I noticed that my site happened to have the smf tables prefixed with something else, and guess this was causing some issues..

Hi,
I have a little weird problem....
I did a fresh installation of smf 1.1.RC2, installed TP 0.86 and the update, and imported (very carefully) a database from smf 1.1.RC1, no TP. Everything is working great, except for one thing: ONLY new members can see the TP, old ones cannot!

Some help here??

Sounds very strange. How exactly can't they see it? no blocks? Download manager not working?

[marboo]

Thanks for the reply Bloc!
I forgot to mention I use the Epsilon and Amber themes.
I attach printscreens.
It seems as if TP is not installed, but the bars' space is left empty.
I tried it also on another server (importing just one old user from the database, nothing else), same thing!

Thought: What if I go the "slow" way: RC1, no TP > upgrade RC2 > TP 0.86 > TP Theme ?

Might be the same problem I had and dunno if this would help.

Basically each membership group needs be given permission to view those blocks. By default only the Guest membership can see the blocks, but old membership groups can't.

The controls are in the Manage Blocks>Edit Blocks section.

Maybe a warning in the downloads or the TP v0.8.6 description might come in handy for some of us who assume that old membership groups might also 'see' the blocks.
