    [Forum] 4.14 smilies, Templates "Blog" button.. Stats.

    Hi! I hope you are well.

    Just upgraded to V4.14 and the "Blog" and "Home" buttons have vanished from the top of the forum.

    It says 16 templates need "Updated" ??

    Also, the smilies box only displays the first category of smilies and anything to do with blog stats has vanished from the statistics at the bottom of the main forum listing?

    I'm a noob at this forum stuff, and the host did the upgrade..

    Help?

    Is this on the default theme? I have a custom theme with it's own image directory. I made sure to update those images as well with 4.1.4 files.

      PS: The host is URL Jet, so I'm sure they applied the upgrade correctly.

      VB is all they do.

        As far as I can see, it's for all themes/skins..

          Try this. Create a new style and choose no parent style. This will force it to use the default templates. Then change to this style and view your forums with it. Do you have the same problem?

          If you do, empty your browser cache, close all browser windows and try again.

          If you do not have this problem with the original templates, then this means the problem is with one or more of your custom templates. You need to revert your templates, then redo your changes.

            Hi Steve!

            Already tried that, and yes the same problem exists.

            I can't even view the blogs, and when I try I get a message about plugins needing to be installed for them to work?

            When I go to the plugin manager it says the following:

            Warning: Plugins are currently globally disabled via config.php.
            ?

                The URL is www.downloadpolitics.com

                I am unfamiliar with Suspect files?

                  What's the name of the new style I asked you to create?

                  Run 'Suspect File Version' in Diagnostics and report back the results.

                  Admin CP -> Maintenance -> Diagnostics -> Suspect File Versions

                      If that is the style I asked you to create then it's not anything like the default style.

                      Reupload the original vbulletin-style.xml file to the install directory. Then upload the tools.php script in the 'do_not_upload' folder of the vB zip file to your Admin CP directory and run it from your browser. Then reimport the vbulletin-style.xml file by running tools.php from your browser. Immediately remove tools.php when you are done.

                          I imported default style in admin CP and it's back..

                          But with the same problems.

                            Also.. A bunch of variables have been stripped out of config.php.

                            Admin, unalterable users, etc..

                              CMS Settings are completely gone from Admin CP?

                              It says plugins are disabled globally in Config.php?
