Topic: Forum Files Refresh Upcoming.

[Ken (OP)]

As time goes by the SMF and TinyPortal software files that Our FamilyForum is built upon become littered with extra codes, mostly because I load up so many Modifications and because I'm forever making changes and testing stuff.

So, over on TP, Illori, who is our Lead Developer for the TP code has a new release just about ready to go and when it goes public I'm thinking that before I install it here we need a fresh copy of SMF installed so as to get rid of all those old lines of code that keep causing errors to pop up in the logs. Plus, there is at least one of those Mods that I can't uninstall now because of the errors.

More details laters.

I need to do mine too. Then I'll probably put TP back on it.

Good deal Steve. 



... we all need to be running TP.

I know SP can have some issues when uninstalling it and is why I need to do it then. Waiting for the, hopefully, final release...version #2948.

Oi, you taking the P?  I thought it was 2949.

The file refresh has started. 

[Ken (OP)]

The SMF files have been replaced.
There's an issue with a Mod that was installed previously, 'SayThanks', it's filling up the error log so it will need attention before doing anything else. Looks like I'll need to do a little reverse engineering and remove all the leftover code from the files.

Thought you uploaded fresh files Ken, there shouldn't be any left over code.  You didn't replace the theme files which is why you're getting some errors, they still have the edits in them. 

[Ken (OP)]

Yes, the custom themes have been removed now... just checked all the file edits for that mod and the files were clean, still working on it, gonna check to see if there are any extra files laying around.

Found it! 
'SayThanks.php' was still lurking in the Sources directory.   

[Ken (OP)]

Got it sorted, no errors now.

[Skhilled]

Ken, when you uninstall mods or just upload new SMF files you should also run the Fix Packages Tool from SMF to make sure the hooks are also removed:

I've found that just uploading new SMF files alone may not remove all of the hooks...since SMF uses the hooks system now. I think it depends on how the mod(s) are coded. You can either do it before or after you upload the new SMF files and it should work.

Hmmmm, need to add that to my docs...

[Ken (OP)]

Thanks Steve, I'll try to remember that for the next time.

Or do it now and reload the mods after that?
