I am sry. Because of lots of things i had to do in the Background i forgot an important part ;) Works now ;)
 
Just a small update. Please read first post. No updated version because to make sure that all Templates added with the xml will be deleted too. Thats why a reinstall of the new xml is needed. Sorry for any circumstances
 
For all guys with that Error.
Got ACP -> Settings -> Latest Thread Ticker Options -> Allowed Forum Nodes
And put there an valid Forum with Threads ;)
 
In the ZIP I found an upload folder and I also found a library, js and styles folder in the zip where the XML is located which files should I upload?
