I am upgrading a board for someone. He was using 1.6.10 and wanted to go to 1.8+
did all the usual backing up etc and did the upgrade.
Everything seemed to be ok except for his default theme. It broke. The added on one seemed fine.
So, I tried fiddling around to no avail and I went and tried again from scratch. I also remembered I forgot to turn off all the plugins so this time I did that.
Then I went and upgraded to 1.6.17 first and this seemed to fix the theme issue but he has a bad plugin in there that is causing major issues with the site and I just don't know how to fix this.
I want to fix this so I can upgrade to 1.8 for him but I'm lost. I realize that 1.6 is no longer supported but we need this fixed before I can go and upgrade.
Uninstalling the plugin isn't an option for me since it does not have an uninstall feature and I don't know enough about databases to go removing things.
It's the last visitors in profile plugin- http://mods.mybb.com/view/last-visitors-in-profile
A quick browse of the plugin support didn't show any of the error issues i'm having with this.
The author has no link for direct support.
These are the errors that is being thrown:
This one happens on any change you want to make in the UserCp
This one happens if I try to make a post and hit send:
Admin sessions are constantly timing out as well. When I click a page to do something, I'm logged out. Its telling me the IP address is problem. I have to use TOR browser to work in there for now, but it still bumps me out and I have to log in again.
There probably are more broken plugins here as well.
I need to get him working again. Right now I have his site down.
