I was running smf 1.17 with no problems, then upgraded to 1.18, again no problems. A few days later I see this new upgrade for 2.0 RC1. (I like new things.) I uploaded the package to the server and run the upgrade.php, everything seems to go just fine, it even says upgrade was successful.

Here is the problem: After the upgrade I go to my forum index page and I get this: "Unable to load the 'main_above' template."

HELP! I got no clue what or how to fix this!
Anybody have a clue?

If you left a theme turned on it's trying to load your theme. Try this, go to

yoururl.com/index.php?theme=1

This should load your site using the default theme. This will only load it for you though, so you will need to go to your admin panel and reset a (NEW) theme for the entire board. I stress new because 1.1.x themes will not work, you will need to find a new theme (or use default)
