Mod/Portal Tab is Missing in ACP

Post by EOS20D »

Your Portal Version: 1.0.03
Your phpBB Type: Standard phpBB3
MODs installed: No
Your knowledge: Basic Knowledge
Boardlink: http://forums.service--manuals.co.uk

What have you done before the problem was there?
I have spent all week reading up on the forum.
I installed phpbb3 on my business server.
I installed your great Portal.
All worked OK.
I used bigdump to install a full backup from my current forum host.
This was OK as a guest but login and I get SQL errors because my forum backup was done with aeroblue as default.
I installed your aeroblue files.
Everything is now working, full forum, portal works great. No problems at all, except one.
In the ACP there is no Portal/Mod tab.
I looked and the Mod tab is enabled.


What have you already tryed to solve the problem?
Nothing yet.

Description and Message
I am too scared to mess around with it as it is nearly perfect in everyway.

Please can someone tell me what I have to do to get the Portal/Mod tab to appear in the ACM

I have spent so much time on this and I am very close to having it perfect.......

This is what I did to solve the problem.

Went to phpmyadmin and deleted the portal_config file in my database.

I then put the Portal install folder back on the server.
I then browsed to my website/install/

The installer ran perfectly with no errors.

I deleted the install folder from the server.

Now every thing is Perfect ;)

I have the mods tab back in the ACP.

I am now very happy indeed.

Moral of the story seems to be make sure you have the correct styles etc in place before you run the installer...

regards

You can add the portal manually by doing:

ACP -> System -> Module management -> Administration Control Panel -> .MODS

Create new module -> Portal

Click Portal

Find Portal [acp_portal] in the drop down on the bottom right, for every option under the heading Portal click add module.

Make sure .MODS, Portal and all modules under that are enabled.
