How to uninstall vBHome 4.1 from vB3.0.3?

[PyroMarkus]

Hope this is the right forum and I am confirmed as licensed now

I need some help, please!
I tried vBHome 4.1 long time ago with my vB 2.x and liked it very much but never completed the layout mods I intended to do because of time problems.

With the time I forgot vBHome and upgraded to vB 3.0.3 some days ago. Now, I would like to completly uninstall vBHome. The uninstaller script does not work anymore with vB3.x so I will do it by hand. In the script I recognized the following modifications:

DELETE FROM settinggroup WHERE settinggroupid=99;
DELETE FROM setting WHERE settinggroupid=99;
ALTER TABLE thread DROP articleid;

So I can run this from phpmyadmin:
- will this remove all table modifications done by vBHome?
- will this work with the table structure of vB 3.0.3?
- will this remove all options for vBHome in the admin panel of vB3.0.3?

To delete the templates:
In the uninstaller script there is something like
killtemplate( $tplname01 );
....
killtemplate( $tplname44 );

Were these templates taken over to vB3? I deleted all old styles from vB2.x and use now one vB3-style only. Are there any relicts from vBHome or are the vB3.x-templates already "vBHome-clean" because of the vB-upgrade from 2.x to 3.x?

Are there any things else to do to delete vBHome completly (besides deleting the files printarticle.php, home/global.php, home/index.php)?

Many thanks in advance,
Pyro

If you dont see any vBhome templates in the custom templates area then you have no extra vBhome templates..


If you need to remove settings dont run querys, its generaly a bad idea.

Turn your board off

add in global.php before ?>

$debug = '1';

Now go into the admincp and find the vBhome settings and delete them one by one, then the group.

You are now uninstalled

Hi there,

thanks fpr the answer!

There are no vBHome Templates to find so they should be gone.

But I don't understand where to delete the vBHome settings/groip in the admin panel.
I switched debug mode on in forum/global.php and see the templates etc. in the forum pages.

In admin panel I see now differences and on the options page the settings for vBHome are still usable - but there I cannot delete nothing.

Where shell I delete the settings/the group?

Many thanks,
Pyro

Are you sure you see no new options? Are you running vB3?

Once you are done using this option you sohuld disable debug mode by removing that line

Sorry, I am still blind and do not see what you mean. Yes, I am using vB 3.0.3. I edited the line you mentioned in /forum/global.php. It seems to be correct because on my forums pages I have the templates used show up. But on the options page of admin panel nothing seems to be different - where shell I look?

I put two screenshots to prove.
Sorry for this beginner questions
thanks in advance
