XF 2.1 Upgraded and forum grenaded! 2.0 to 2.1.4

[KynanMilo]

Soo, I have upgraded every time successfully... However this time was a disaster.

Every thing went fine during the Xenforo upgrade, no errors. I upgraded the UI.X, aslo the theme, and no errors. However the forum looks exploded, and I am throwing this error. I though it might be PHP, but its at 7.0, tried to push 7.1 and no difference.

Forum address is www.vetterowners.com and here is a screenshot of the error. Any direction would be grand! Thanks

Hello,

Did you also upgrade your style/add-on for UI.X ?

Regards, SyTry

What about the default style?

 

[KynanMilo]

How do I implement the default style? I tried turning off all the drift stuff and no change. Yes I did upgrade the Theme and UI.X to the newest releases, as well as other add-ons.

The problem style is Vetter Owners, I see Drift and Default work just fine.
Check for any outdated templates, you'll see a notice on the admin homepage if you have some.

Interesting, I found where to switch the style. Those are all the default un-modified ones. I was using the one I customized and like you say "Vetter Owners". I don't know what that one is broke. I checked and yes there are outdated templates, but I have no idea what to do with them.

 

[m1ne]

You need to merge them, checking for any customization you want to keep. I'd also backup the styles.

 

[KynanMilo]

First, thanks for the help. Making a difference.

What is the best way to backup? Via FTP? if so what dirs?

 

[m1ne]

There's an option on the styles page to export the style.

 

[KynanMilo]

Ok, cool. I backed up those two. When I click Merge, it shows a bunch on code. The Merge button at the bottom is not clickable. But I do see this in the code. Lots and lots of this.

You need to choose one of them. Typically I choose parent version unless I've added my own stuff in.

 

[KynanMilo]

I have added my own stuff. The Vetter one was quiet customized. If you have added your own stuff what would you select? Both or Custom Version? or even Parent...

 

[m1ne]

You could copy your custom code to a notepad and try adding it after, you'd chose parent in this scenario.

 

[KynanMilo]

Well shoot, thank you for all your help. Everything is updated and its still broke. I am gonna gave to find a pro to put my broken pieces back together. Ack. I wish this would have gone better.

Themehouse team should help.

 

[KynanMilo]

Yeah, agreed. I just submitted a ticket. Thanks again for your time.
