You should not undo the database edits when doing a manual uninstall...the database items can remain in place and cause no harm...automated uninstalls don't remove the database changes. You need only remove the file edits and any additional files a mod adds. If a manual uninstall causes you problems you still have the option of uninstalling the forum upgrade mod so as to take your forum back to a previous version thus allowing you to do a normal uninstall of the mod.

and i'm really hoping the mod updater can help me with this...

If you will use the package parser to output the details of each version of the mod comparing them should be easy for you to do for yourself...alternatively you can compare the .xml files in each of the mod versions using winmerge...links below:

When I try and download it, it says that it cant complete the modification to my display.template.php file.  I'm using the default theme except that I changed the colors of a few things and thats it.

Your error is a variant on the most common error of all those reported on these pages...it tells you that another mod you have installed has already edited the file(s) in question and that you thus need to do a manual installation of this mod. Please read:

I've released a new version that should fix a few of the problems people have been having.

This would most likely be due to a conflict with another mod, you would have to remove all evidence of the offending mod or you would have to modify this mod to use a different table name.

I can't say I know why you can't install it, all versions contain the code required to be uninstalled. Instead of looking for the changes that have to be made, I'll recommend you manually completely remove the older version and just install the newer one on top.

I manually installed this (for whatever reason I have to manually install all mods on 1.1.4 even back when I was only using default theme).

I run AwardSystemdb.php and get this message:

Database Error
No database selected
File: /hsphere/local/home/immaturi/forum.parentalplayground.com/AwardSystemdb.php
Line: 48 


When clicking a member profile, I get this message:

Database Error
Unknown column 'a.fileName' in 'field list'
File: /hsphere/local/home/immaturi/forum.parentalplayground.com/Sources/Load.php
Line: 916 

which I am sure is because I can't run the AwardSystemdb.php file correctly.

What step am I missing?

I tried uninstalling it manually but i get a database error when doing so! Is there a way to reverse the database edit the mod made?

I have just installed Simple Awards, having done so I can not seem to work out what happens next.

The instructions say "Give Awards in Profile Permissions" but I can not locate the Profile Permissions page anywhere.

However under a persons profile there is now "Awards" in the left hand nav box but clicking on this I get a message "The attachments upload directory is not writable. Your attachment or avatar cannot be saved."

But again I can not locate an attachments upload directory on the server. There is an attachments directory that that is set to 0777 but nowhere can I find an attachments upload directory, just were should it be?

immaturity

That's the reason I eventually uninstalled this mod. I did find the directory and had it chmoded to 777 (although I apologize, but it was so long ago I can't remember where I had that directory), but then when I would try to add an award it would just refresh the user's profile with no award added.

Go to the admin panel, then under Configuration on the left hand side pick features and options, it's in there.

Is there any way for the award to also show on the members profiles?

Michael7

I tried to install this mod yesterday, and it told me that it was either corrupt, or not compatible with the version I had. I had 1.1.4, and then updated to 1.1.5, so I assume that was the problem . . .

Is there a way to make this work with 1.1.5? It should work, I would assume, but it apparently doesn't work :(

Can anyone help me with this?

chrisb

we would like see an update for 1.5.1
