Full Version: Upgrade went wrong

Just upgraded forum from 1.6.12 to 183. That went horrible. Everything is centered in the middle and the main menu is ruined. And users contactinformation in CP is totally black.

Last step of the upgrade was this:
Upgrade Complete
/home/www/security-safety.net/install/resources///myadvertisements.lang.php does not exist

How can I repair this?

upgrading guidance Wrote:Visit your Admin Control Panel, then go to Templates & Style > Templates > Find Updated Templates. This will show you a list of all the templates that have changed during the upgrade.

You can either revert these templates to their default - meaning all the changes you've made to it will be removed - or you can see a Diff Report which will show you exactly what's changed. If you have a custom theme installed, it is probably best that you look at the Diff Report and apply the changes you need.

or it would be better to install & use a theme fully compatible with MyBB 1.8.x

Edit: for missing myadvertisements.lang.php file
ensure that you have that file in admin sub-folder of the main language folder (eg. ~/inc/languages/english/admin)
I reverted all the changes but the header is still not styled correctly and the icons are missing and the background on all posts are black - so is the text - that means no one can read it. Is there anything else I can roll back?
modifying 1.6 version theme to 1.8 version requires devoting good amount of time.
if you need using earlier theme then you can try this guidance => basic theme conversion

as suggested earlier, its better to use a new theme fully compatible with MyBB 1.8.x
