    [Suite] Step 6) Install/Upgrade CMS -- Install CMS default data - question

    What do you put in this section? I did a search and found nothing and the install readme file doesn't reference it.

    -------------------------------------------------
    Step 6
    ------------------------------------------------

    Install CMS default data This will overwrite any default data you already have in your CMS Username (User must exist)

    Nothing - the install script contains default data to fill your Content pages should you wish.

        Can I run this after the fact somehow? I missed it initially and I don't have any of the default cms stuff
        Reality Check!

          No, can only be done as part of the CMS installation procedure

              FOR ALL THAT ARE STUMPED -

              What to do for step 6 : Type a valid username from your forum in the field and press install - This will install the test data that looks like VB CMS page

              NOTE: If you didn't do this when you upgraded then you CAN rerun the upgrade and it will work.

              I just did it

                What do you do if step 6 doesn't prompt you? I've installed it 3 times tonight with no luck. I've also tried to upgrade. It just does it's thing.

                  Sorry David, I wish I could help you. I just know in step six for 4.0 Gold suite upgrade.php I have a prompt. Maybe you can post an image of what step six looks like for you?

                    screen-shot -- would be how it looks after it installs just the product -- is nothing, just a screen saying its done .. .


                    tried installing the grids and other things needed and the cms looks like s#*t .. .


                    is the worst time in any version i had in an upgrade -- and lack of support help for issues.. .

                        they need to find a way to "force" this form as the script is not working for everyone .. .
                        - a lot of else ifs' and checks -
                        and no ideas what its' looking for or how to edit it --

                          I just tried rerunning the upgrade again to do a screen shot of step 6. Now I don't get the field either. I'm not sure why it worked for me the first time I reran the upgrade.

                          Sorry guys... no clue.

                            think because the checks in the script know the default data is in there now it will not reinstall it a 2nd time -
                            - now they just need to HELP those of us that this form will not even show up no matter what we do -
                            like a simple how edit the script to think the data that is not there is really not there
                            know i can have the cms, as it did install it - and did pay for it .. .

                              It's weird that I don't get that step on a clean install. Support is looking into it now. When I installed the previous beta(s) weeks back I got the sample data - but still no check point whether I wanted it installed or not.
