It can be difficult to downgrade SMF versions.
What other mods do you have installed?

Well only SP and this page tab mod adder. Also Youtube BB code. The downgrading was not to hard, all needed to be done was install RC4 files in without losing any topics or boards. I found it kinda easy, just had to remove the update.php and sql files.

Before making that kind of change to your website, it is usually good to uninstall mods.
Uninstalling SimplePortal now, and re-installing it might work.


Please try SimplePortal without those other two mods installed, just to make sure there is no imcompatibility.


It just seems like you are in SimplePortal's maintenance mode.
But that should certainly show up in the SimplePortal admin center.

Thanks for checking that.


When you re-installed SimplePortal after downgrading back to RC4, you got errors. How did you solve that problem?

Well I didn't get all RC4 files on the FTP when I was installing mod. Was kinda in a rush... But now I do have RC4 files on FTP.

OK.  Now, you have started with all RC4 files. And then re-installed SimplePortal, with no other mods?

Thanks for telling me what I should be looking at.
As guest, I can see that sp_main contains nothing but a <b/>.
It is as if either
1) Guest is not allowed to see any of your portal-page blocks.
2) You did a "guest cannot see portal" customization.
Can you turn on articles and add one forum post as article, to see if it shows up on the portal page -- for guests?

I fixed it, my issue was, that I had all membergroups selected. When I should of had, ignore member groups.
