How do I enable Mods in Config.php

[jrock1]

I upgraded to 3.8.5 and had to disable the mods via config.php by inserting 'disable hooks...'

After the upgrade process, I've been trying to turn them back on and no one has been able to give me step by step instructions to do so. There is plenty of info on disabling them, but none on enabling them again.

Just telling me to enable them via config or to check my admincp is not very helpful.

I've done two things that haven't worked:

1. Changed 'true' to 'false' in the "disable hooks..." line of the config file
2. Deleted the line altogether.

My admincp tells me that mods are disabled via config.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Comment out the line.

If he removed the line all-together and didn't work, how would commenting it out work at all?

@jrock1:
After removing the line entirely, have you tried looking at the Plugin Manager to see if any of them are set to disabled? If so, enable them again. You might also want to check the global setting in vBulletin Options just to be sure.

That's pretty much all I can suggest, personally.

Because he didn't say if the line was still in there now.

I would bet he's uploading config.php to the wrong location after editing out the line... it needs to go in your /forums/includes/ or if your forum is installed in the root, your /includes/ directory.

Boofo...

You have to explain things better in order for non-computer coders to understand. Simply saying 'comment out the line' make no sense to me. And that is what I've been getting for 6 weeks of back and forth from others.

Anyway, I deleted the line and tried that and it didn't work. That version of config is currently uploaded to my (/forums/includes) folder.

As for my admincp, when I go to Plugins they all show up, but the warning at the top says that the mods are globally disabled via config.php.

They all seem to be enabled in the admincp, so just figuring out the config file is my problem.

Thank you all for trying to help me.

And you're very certain you haven't edited the default config.php (which was in your package of vBulletin) which is named .php.new still?

[jrock1]

Positive...

The upgraded is completed and I deleted or changed the files that I was supposed to.

can you link to your forum?
