Disabling this extensionkilled my site, any recovery options

by Gillford » Mon May 27, 2019 7:46 pm

I'm running phpBB 3.2.5, PHP 7.2.

I suspected an incompatibility with the "Mark Post Unread" extension. I attempted to disable it, and after that nothing on my site responds. It's just a header & body tag. No content. Any idea how to manually purge the extension? The files are still there, the database is still there. I can verify that the extension is marked as inactive in the phpbbc5_ext table. I have no idea why disabling this extension should kill my site.

Going to answer my own question. The manage extensions page for my site survived. So I also disabled the "Topics Preview" extension which I suspected was having a problem with the Mark Post Unread extension. The site came back to life. No loss of data.

I would like to suggest that there are some major problems between these two extensions. I'm not going to use either until those problems are solved. I love both the options, but losing the whole site isn't worth it.
