All templates reverted, but Logout doesn't work.

Did you run the upgrade script?

sorry to butt in but I havent seen anything about an upgrade script.
I thought you replace the files as per upgrade instructions for 128...
Version 1.2.x
Unzip the release archive to your computer using an archive utility capable of decompressing the download format you chose (Winzip)
Using an ftp client (FlashFXP), upload the contents of the 'upload' directory to the directory in which you have a previous version of MyBB installed, with the exception of uploading of the following files:

./inc/config.php
./inc/settings.php
./install/ (directory)
Your board should now be updated to this version. Please visit your Admin CP to confirm this.


Have I missed something?

The announcement says that you have to run the upgrade script.
(http://community.mybboard.net/showthread...n=lastpost)

It's in /install/upgrade.php

so in other words I upload files as per instructions shipped with 1.2.8...
and include install directory and after upload run the install script?
Pls confirm.

I'm sorry but it doesn't say that with the install instructions that come with the dload in 1.2.8.

Maybe that is why people are having problems??

Download, unzip and upload the changed files archive and then run the upgrade script from /install/upgrade.php

Also see [Wiki: Upgrading].

If you have a previous version of MyBB installed you are supposed to use the changed files archive and not the full download. Hence why upgrade instructions are not in the full download.

Those instructions are wrong. You SHOULD upload the new "./install/ (directory)" to get the new upgrade.php, it should then say something about having to run the upgrade script.

well I think someone should tell the BIG boss there to fix it.
Could cause a few probs...lol
1000 thanks.
