not converting :-(

[cassie1275]

Am trying to convert a 2.0 (something) to the only one i can download which is 3.3

Got through the install after some initial problems, cant get back to my old forum because i had to update the php version past what the 2.0 used to get the new install to work.

Did the conversion, clicked all the finish buttons, but nothing has happened and it just goes back to the convert page and the forum says "Sorry but this board is currently unavailable."

What have i done wrong?

Old one was on https://www.caroles-crafts.co.uk/forum/index.php but is not there, unless i roll back the php again, which i can only do for 2 more days.

When solved the problem with this i have another bigger one to convert too before Thursday.

I am a beginner at this, the person who set up the forum originally is no longer with us.

The new one looks fine. Try clearing your webbrowser's cache

Looks OK to me. (but your cookie_secure is set to False (change that to True)

Good job

Thanks, now just to make it the right colours.

I was stupid enough NOT to take a picture of the old one when it was working

Saw a nice style in the database and it is responsive, as is our website, so i will probably be back asking how to add that style

thanks for the help.

Seek and ye shall find Installing and using styles.

Thanks again

i am really pleased to see some responsive designs as i had updated all my sites to mobile first responsive using bootstrap quite a while ago. The fact my old forums were not responsive was always a pity but i never had time to upgrade. So i guess i should be thankful my hoster stopped the low php phpbb 2 used

[Mick]

FWIW - All the phpBB styles based on prosilver should be responsive in fact I would think all styles for 3.3.11 are responsive otherwise people wouldn’t use them these days. The ones that aren’t responsive probably aren’t worth bothering with anyway.

oh dear, i thought i had it, until i went to check some of the posts.

"The requested page could not be found."

Every single post is not there, the headings and topic etc are all there but no posts - help please

My other forum worked so what did i do wrong with knitone?

You should post in support and link back to this topic. You’re more likely to get a fix there.

[cassie1275]

ok, not sure how to post in support and link back.

[Mick]

Copy this topics url and post it in your new topic.

[cassie1275]

Thanks

Even new posts are not showing. So annoyed, i did the same as for my cc forum.

[cassie1275]

Someone in support helped.

viewtopic.php was missing.

That is so odd as i actually uploaded the files from the same place to both domains.

It is working

Thanks for your help
