| Re: Upgraded to 2.5 How/where do you modify custom templates? |
| by allnewtome on 2010/12/24 16:59:52 P.S. On further searching, it appears that my problem is the same as here: Template Set Manager Download - bad tar.gz file That question is from a few weeks ago but remains unsolved. What do you recommend? 1. Do not upgrade to 2.5.0 until this is resolved. 2. Upgrade to 2.5.0 but use a new theme entirely. 3. Some other solution. Thank you all once again. |

| by allnewtome on 2010/12/24 16:50:43 Please help! Upgrading 2.4.2 to 2.5.0 I go to System > Templates > Download (to download custom templates) I save the file (.tar.gz) and upload it. Then try to extract it $ tar -xvzf templates.tar.gz tar: This does not look like a tar archive tar: Skipping to next header tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors What am I doing wrong? Thanks |

| by Maadman on 2010/12/19 8:37:53 Thanks for the help everyone. I ended up locating them in the database and making the changes yesterday as a quick fix. I did try your way today serial-weber and it worked just fine. Maybe a suggestion I can make to you mamba if you are the one who can edit the release notes is this. Quote:
I think you should put this notification above each versions upgrade instructions. I for one read the release notes and then skimmed down over the versions that did not apply to me to find the instructions for my version only and this notification is only listed above the earliest version. I'm sure others have done the same so that may help. I didn't really mean xoops was going down the toilet either I was just frustrated and had a guy on my back all day about that issue. :) Thanks again. |

| by serial-weber on 2010/12/17 10:18:59 Hi, I had this problem in my local test site and here is what I did to resolve it! 1. Connect your self as administrator of the web site Go to Administration menu -> Preferences -> System options -> General settings At Default template set Choose default 2. Copy all files block which are in the module folder C:\Program Files\EasyPHP5.2.10\www\site_folder\modules\module_name\templates\ in C:\Program Files\EasyPHP5.2.10\www\site_folder\theme\theme_name\module_name\ 3. Go to Modules -> System -> Templates Choose the template you want to change. I hope that it will help you |

| by ghia on 2010/12/17 9:44:44 This is a missing feature in 2.5.0 Maybe easiest way is to revert back to 2.4.5 Else you need to save the templates from the database to /themes/yourtheme/modules/... See included suico theme for an example. |
