Loosing admin menu after updating to 2.2.3

Hi all

Just updated my site http://www.re-located.com from 2.0.9.2 thru to the latest 2.2.3. I used all the upgrades in the proper order and tested the site after each step. All was well untill i went from 2.13.2 to the latest 2.2.3. When I did this step I had a few minor probs that I fixed but 1 prob still remains:

When I log on as admin and go to admin area there are no admin icons at all.

Every module seems to work and ive tried deleting admin.php from the cache as described in another thread but no joy..

Any ideas anyone?

Thanks

Sq

In 2.2.3 there will be no administration icons, the menu is accessed from the dropdown menus above. See the XOOPS 2.2 Tour Flash Tutorial for more.

Thanks for the quick reply jd...

I actually accessed a menu by going thru my history. the path was '...re-located.com/modules/system/admin.php' The menu looked modified from the 2.0.13 installation but i didn't see anything that resembled a drop down menu. I also got this php error:

Notice [PHP]: Use of undefined constant XOOPS_SYSTEM_USER - assumed 'XOOPS_SYSTEM_USER' in file modules/system/admin/users/xoops_version.php line 44

The strange thing is that the 'administration' link that is available when I log on as admin directs to '..re-located.com/admin

Maybe the xoops_version.php file is corrupted?

Thanks Sq

(good flash tut btw)

JD im a fool!

For some reason I didn't upload the 'themes' folder from the 2.2.3 update


All seems to work fine now although when I select 'admin index' from the 'actions' drop down I get the XOOPS page with the drop downs but nothing in the white box??

Is this right

Thanks Sq

Re: Loosing admin menu after updating to 2.2.3

I do not understand your reference to "white boxes" Go to Misc. Tools - Templates, see if any system templates need to be generated.

You may also want to clear your template_c and cache folders (except for index.html) and see if that clears things up.

jd

the white box i was referring to was the white area directly below the drop down menus. I found a few system templates that needed generating and now all seems well, thanks for your help with that.

But...

I've now come across another prob -

I use myalbum to display pics and have 'top pics' and 'recent pics' blocks displayed in the right hand column. After the 2.2.3 update ive noticed that these blocks aren't displaying thumbnailed images like they used to - just the text link to the images in question.

I've checked the myalbum template set and there are about 16 files that are highlighted in yellow and need to be generated but when i try to generate them i get 'selected file doesnt exist' highlighted in red.

I tried updating myalbum from 2.7 to 2.84 but that didn't seem to help at all. Also I deleted the files in 'cache' and 'templates_c' again no better.

Any help would be great
