It is highly recommended to upgrade, as 2.1.1 fixes a lot of bugs and adds few features.

Eliana Tamerin · December 11, 2008, 09:21:42 AM

Actually, we at least recommend upgrading to 2.0.5. If you do not wish to have the sidebars within the forum, then the Classic version (or 2.0.x) is the version you'll want. 2.1.x essentially does the same thing, with a few added features.

At least upgrade to 2.0.5. If you want more features, then upgrade to 2.1.1.

How do i go about upgrading, do i need to uninstall the 2.0.4 first?

Jade Elizabeth · December 11, 2008, 10:32:20 AM

The announcements on the SimplePortal website will help with that.

I actually have 2.0.5, I also have 2.0.4 in the packages but its not installed, 2.1.1 gives me an error on istall, I like the 2.0.5 but i want random gallery images to display on the portal...Besides that i had a poll on my fourm and 90% of the vote liked portal as well...

You have to uninstall 2.0.5 to install 2.1.1. If you have errors, post them here or check out our new Install and Upgrade support board.

ya i did that, i reinstalled 2.0.5 , 2.1.1 just wouldn't rewrite the style.css sheet... now back to the 2.0.5 the copyright is overlapped gain, Cant remember how i fixed it last time now...

Ctrl+F5 refreshes your cache. Should fix the issue.

Also, the style.css changes are minimal. If you attach your style.css here, we could help you apply those changes so you can upgrade to 2.1.1.

I have noticed, that if the Custom Copyright mod is installed before SimplePortal 2.1.1, the CSS edit fails for SP. That is because the Custom Copyright mod does the very same change. This means, if that is installed, then the css part is already done for you, and you can continue without doing that change.

Bugpac ™ · December 11, 2008, 05:24:50 PM

ok i upgraded to 2.1.1 and it went but the copyright is still overlapped...

Burke ♞ Knight · December 11, 2008, 05:31:31 PM

Did you do a force refresh?

Bugpac ™ · December 11, 2008, 06:27:12 PM

Did now...

Jade Elizabeth · December 11, 2008, 07:37:37 PM

And did it fix it?

haito · December 11, 2008, 09:14:02 PM

Does simpleportal 2.1.1 work with the SMF Media Gallery now? or is that a media gallery issue?

Bugpac ™ · December 12, 2008, 03:57:31 PM

tridirk · December 13, 2008, 02:18:07 AM

I installed this today... Everything looked great, package manager, said no errors, I installed and this is what I get?

QuoteUnknown column 'permission_type' in 'field list'
File: /home/u7/tridirk1/html/smf/Sources/Subs-SPortal1-1.php
Line: 44

I can't get any other part of my forum, or even back to the package manager to uninstall this?

Help please.

haito:

While you are creating a block, you will see the options, as a separate block at the bottom.

tridirk:

Extract the package. Copy the install1-1.php file and upload to your forum root. Then run it from your browser. Once you see the message saying the db changes are completed, remove the file.

bullbreedluverz:

2.1 has some serious bugs, update to 2.1.1. That issue was addressed with 2.1.1 too.
