Ok, well, I'm having a problem with the SMFshop package... it says it installed successfully, but next to everyone's posts, there is to "donate points" or "pay user" button. Nor is there the "shop" button at the top next to the admin, home, etc... buttons. Did I do something wrong? What sound I do?
Most mods only install to the default theme, so I am guessing you are using a custom theme. And if the default theme does have the bits in it you will need to manually apply the theme changes for the mod for your theme.
See this How to make mods work with themes? (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=34526.0) for information on how to apply mod theme changes to custom themes.
