Topic: SP and SMF RC4 compatible?

[c23_Mike]

Hi there!

SMF RC4 is out. Anyone tested it?

[fl4pj4ck]

works with clean installation no problem

however I cannot install it when upgraded RC3->RC4

edit:
just spotted

For now you can add the following code to your "Themes/{themename}/css/portal.css" file:

Code: [Select]

h4.catbg span.left, h4.catbg2 span.left, h3.catbg span.left, h3.catbg2 span.left, .table_list tbody.header td span.left
{
float: left;
display: block;
width: 9px;
height: 31px;
background: url(../images/theme/main_block.png) no-repeat 0 -160px;
}

h4.titlebg span.left, h3.titlebg span.left
{
float: left;
display: block;
width: 9px;
height: 31px;
background: url(../images/theme/main_block.png) no-repeat 0 -200px;
}
Apart from that small css issue, it looks like SP 2.3.2 is compatible with SMF 2 RC4.

I cannot reinstall SP 2.3.2 with a recently upgraded SMF 2.0RC4 database. It installs but then errors on install2.php

Database Error
Duplicate key name 'state'
File: /xxx/xxx/public_html/Packages/temp/install2.php
Line: 521

[locutusweb]

The same error as Yahmez and fl4pj4ck over here...

File: /xxx/xxx/xxxx/xxxxx/public_html/Packages/temp/install2.php

Is there a solution pls?

Thanks in advance
Kind regards

Easiest solution to that issue is to open up SimplePortal_2.3.2.zip and remove these lines of code from package-info.xml:

Code: [Select]

<!-- Install scripts -->
<database>install2.php</database>
To do that either extract the files to your computer, edit that one and recreate the archive, or edit it directly from 7zip (right-click -> Edit, make the changes and hit CTRL+S, then click yes when prompted to update the archive)

Well... 
And will be SP v. 2.4?
Will be soon now when RC4 is out? 

[Maarten]

So, it isn't compatible yet?

[locutusweb]

Oldiesman quick fix solved the installing problem. I noticed that the menubar wasn't automatically updated when I installed SP. Did this manually. For now, I found no other problems with SP and SMF 2.0 RC4.

This solution works but the button "forum" is missing.

How can I solve this problem?

In subs.php find:

Code: [Select]

'home' => array(
'title' => $txt['home'],
'href' => $scripturl,
'show' => true,
'sub_buttons' => array(
),
'is_last' => $context['right_to_left'],
),
Replace with:

Code: [Select]

'home' => array(
'title' => $txt['home'],
'href' => $scripturl,
'show' => true,
'sub_buttons' => array(
),
'is_last' => $context['right_to_left'],
),
'forum' => array(
'title' => empty($txt['sp-forum']) ? 'Forum' : $txt['sp-forum'],
'href' => $scripturl . ($modSettings['sp_portal_mode'] == 1 && empty($context['disable_sp']) ? '?action=forum' : ''),
'show' => in_array($modSettings['sp_portal_mode'], array(1, 3)) && empty($context['disable_sp']),
'sub_buttons' => array(
),
),

I cannot install the simple portal on my forums, I keep getting the error shown below when I try to. I tried Oldiesmann's solution and it still doesn't work. Unless this this error can be fixed, I think a new Simpleportal might be in need.

That looks like it is a file permission issue. Did you enter the required FTP information?

[Kellen]

I changed the rights of the majority of the ones I could find to 777, as for most of the sp related ones I couldn't find them anywhere.

It did not work for me.

If you still get that error, you failed to modify the archive and it is still attempting to run the install2.php script.
You need to remove the quoted section from the package-info.xml and then place the updated file back into the archive before uploading it and attempting to install.
