Hi peeps

I upgraded last night and all was well, most if not all haks installed appeared to be working..

I then went through all the templates that needed reverting, did them and lost most if not all hacks...

1. Is it imperative to revert the templates?
2. What woud happen if i didnt revert them?

look forward to your replies as i have lots and lots of hacks and addons as i
am sure your all aware and reinstalling them could take an age and a half and some

Congrats on the successful upgrade

I was wondering how you would go on.

Anyway, back to business, most if not all of the new 3.6 features require quite a number of edits to the templates, and as more edits have been added on every beta and RC (including Gold) it's not actually easy to even make a list, without the fact that the templates are heavily modified to begin with.

If you don't edit the templates, then most of the new features won't work.

I feel your pain though, It's certainly not my idea of a day or two's fun having to redo them all.

Hi KA

thanks and erm.....I gone back to 3.5.5

I got no end of DB errors obviously these are due to installed hacks that are not working as they should be

Anyway, since going back and restoring the db i get a blank page when trying to create a new thread, also in the forumdisplay there should be a newthread button but its just showing the Post New Thread link as is....

I aint sure whats going on as i have upgrade and restored about 3 times now since last night, the other 2 times went well, this time i have this issue creating a new thread...

When i click on the Post New Thread link it takes me to http://www.bashys-place.com/newthrea...newthread&f=90 notice the forums/ aint there and gives a 404 not found error, not sure why this is either.....

so if one was to upgrade to 3.6,and then not do the template edits/reverts all previuos hacks installed under 3.5 would be ok? just the new 3.6 features wont work?? thats something i could live with.
@Bashy i'm shocked you took the plunge LOL,you are the king of hacks hehehehe
