You need to give us something to go on, like what type of hosting, which version of PHP, what type of errors are you getting, did the .xml seem to import okay, what other mods do you have that might be interfering, etc. etc.

Hosting on HostGator (currently hatchling plan)
PHP5

I'm not getting any errors, I upload the xml file via "Import/Export" product but it never shows up on my Admin CP Options list, nothing at all. It's there on my product list and everything, but I can't see the control panel for it anywhere.

Get exactly the same problem for VSa Chatbox. I have only just set the forum up so there are no other plugins, mods, skins or products installed currently.

Apologies, I'm a techy novice.

A quick site search for "options not showing" turned up this short thread from 2006: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=132957 . Like him, I think your install is bad and I'd try reinstalling vb. I think since then there are some tools that might help, like "check file versions", but a reinstall may be lots easier and would fix lots of problems you haven't even run into yet.

Ah man, that is ++++ing weeeeak. No worries. Is there any way I can back up the work I've done on the forum so far, forums, configs etc?

[Videx]

I don't think you want to. Clearly there's a very serious problem and you need to purge everything and start over. Look at it this way - you'll do it all quicker the second time around!

That being said, you can certainly try importing a db backup after a clean install. But I don't think I would trust it enough to warrant the short time it would take to just do it over again.

[SomeoneTalked]

No worries, thanks for the heads up, wish me luck this time around!

Hi
Just installed no problems. A question though;
Does setting "Maximum Invitations user can send at once" to 0 = no limit?

[nit233]

It gives an error if there are whitespaces...else works perfect

Hi

Just installed no problems on 4.1.6 with operations, but have a style problem. I have a dark background, and the invite page. Has Dark input box & Dark Font. I had this problem on another item but can't seem to find it on the templates. Could you please assist?
