Try to use the default style in your user settings and then try to install the templates again.

Hi Lizard,

Im using the default style, how can i re-install the templates again? By running the upgrade files?

My board is now unaccessible with the db errors. Hope someone can help me fix those. :(

LOTR, you didn't by any chance install the Latest Articles on Forum Home add-on did you ?

[LOTR]

Yup... remoce the add-on and works fine now. Thanks.. :)

Cing, by any chance how can i re-install the vbarticles templates on my 2nd style? It didnt overwrite during the upgrade process.

Ah guessed so :)
I will update the add-ons soon. Some will no longer work ( like in your case ;) )

Yep, unfortunately the install script only puts in the templates into the default style set.

For a quick fix to install just the templates on all the other style sets as well, perform the following:

In the install_vbarticles.php file,

Find:

at around line 642 of install_vbarticles.php

replace it with


Code:
---------------

---------------


where X is the styleid of the Style in which you have (non default).


Now go to this url in your browser:

http://www.yoursite.com/forum/admincp/install_vbarticles.php?hacklanguage=english&step=7

It will then put in the templates into the other non default style set.
You have to repeat this for every style you have ( which is non default ).

cinq I didn't install this hack but if a board has multiple styles around 6-7 the installation of the styles will be pain in the ass :)

Thanks for your feedback Lizard, I am actually writing a script to add the templates to all styles. :)

Great cing.. i look into that soon :)
