Time for me to update my forum...and inform those on an SMF forum I am simply a member on that this is out so they can update.  :P

Upgraded within just 0.00000000000000114 seconds...

whew. :)

no one can ever ever do this: vb? ipb? phpbb? who else???

Upgraded successfully and easy.
Thank you to the packagers, who made this job esay to me.

Trouble is, I'm getting an error big  bright message on all my pages:

"Attention of Pn-Pn theme:
This theme doesn't correspond to the version of SMF that you are using. This theme is made for SMF 1.1.2 & SMF 1.1.3. "

I guess that's true - I'm using the pnp theme, and it's not made for the latest release.
Looking around the boards, I see the mods are programmed for the default theme, so I have no reason to think that a theme of my choosing should work.
This is a little inconveniant. I'm going to have to change from the beautiful pn-pn theme back to the default.
Shucks.

If there is no work around, then it seems that for the sake of maintaining a consistant look and feel,
I should stick to the default theme. Or, learn how to create a theme, and make one myself so that I know
it's inner workings well enough to tweak it for each update.


Is there a work around or a solution for this?
What else should I know about this manner of problem?

Thanks

Sunil_W - You're better off contacting the theme author about that in the theme's topic.

I can´t install this patch, when I try, I get some error-message ->
"The package you are trying to install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF."

I have no mods installed :(

Since I upgraded my default theme images are broken.
When I change the theme path to my other forum with 1.1.3 they're working fine..

Hi,

Just wondering if this upgrade will affect installed MODs? Or what need to be done to keep these MODs working properly?

Thanks.

I just had that happen to me on one of the boards I manage. Try going to the package manager and apply from there. For whatever reason, it doesn't seem to want to install the first time on some hosts (PowWeb).

It all depends on if the mods changed the code we need to patch. If they didn't, they will continue to work, if you use the package manage to install this update.

My jaw dropped last night when I saw the pink/red message that I should upgrade....and then hit the floor when it upgraded without a hitch!!! Thanks a ton guys! : )

Just out of curiosity, when 2.x goes production instead of beta, is that upgrade going to be just as easy, or is it going to be a world of hurt to established forums?

Remaker

Upgrade was very easy, but took a while... simplemachines.org seems very slow right now, probably because there are so many people getting the new packages now.

thanks.

That happened to me when the server was lagging. Just wait for it to recover and try again. That worked for me . . .

Edit: By server I mean SMF's server, not yours. This forum is going extremely slow, and I guess that's because a lot of people is upgrading. Just wait for it to be a little less full of people and try ;)
