    Someone help! I went and upgraded our forum from 2.0.8 to 2.0.11 and now I'm getting an error. To view the error for yourself go to http://www.steamtrainz.com/forum and see. I get the feeling it has something to do with our custom forum scheme, but I can't get into the forum admin panel to change the scheme. Someone please help!

    Hi Steam,
    it seems that you made the upgrade but forgot to include among the templates the one called Charcoal2, just move that template from the old forum to the new one or...

    do what I usually do when an error like that strike (I mean I forgot I have using a different template as the Subsilver, so, just rename your Sulsilver folder to Charcoal2 and then you could enter easily to your admin page.

    Regards,
    Sergio.

    Regards,

    I would definately do some reading on the phpBB.com site instead of coming here for phpBB help. Personally I would tell you to upgrade to SMF and be done with the phpBB issues. :)

    Hey SteamTrainz

    log into phpmyadmin select the database of your forum
    find the tables phpbb_config scroll down to override_user_style and make sure its set to one 1 , then go to the second page of phpbb_config and find default_style and change it to 1 which will give you the default theme , at least you'll be able to access your forum now , just go into the admin of phpbb2 and either fix or install the template you like using ;)

    Just had to help one of my customers today to fix his forum :D
