    Default Trouble installing Dev-X(Blue) template

    Hi folks,

    Thanks for the phpLD template, it's excellent. Although I'm having a few problems installing it. I'm using a fresh install of phpLD v3.3.0, following the install instructions.

    I've copied the files and folders to my server.

    /directory/images/*
    /directory/templates/Dev-X(Blue)
    /directory/init.php
    /directory/main.css

    Is this correct?

    When I go to the Edit Templates page in my admin panel, I don't see the new template to be able to activate it.

    Can you help please?

    You probably need to upload the Dev-X folder within the main Dev-X folder.

    Works very smooth.

    If you need help, PM me!

    Thanks for using Dev-X

    Sorry but this doesn't seem to work either.

    The folder structure isn't the same as the other templates.

    Can you offer exact instructions on how to install this please? I am just learning phpLD and don't have the knowledge to know where files/folders should go yet.

    Thanks

    I am willing to pay the $30 for branding removal if we can get this working on my site. :)

    OK I've managed to get it working. The init.php file that is supplied in the zip breaks the style. When I copy back the original file it works. But there is no categories in the sidebar - is this caused by not having the init.php file?

    We are talking in PMs at the moment but to follow up for the thread:

    I haven't experienced a problem like this before in Dev-X but the edit below to the init.php file is needed to display the Featured and Adsense section on the homepage:

    Open your init.php in your root & search for this:

    // ----------------------------------

    Replace with this:

    // Main categories
    $mainCategs = $db->CacheGetAll("SELECT * FROM `{$tables['category']['name']}` WHERE `STATUS` = '2' AND `PARENT_ID` = 0 ORDER BY `".CATEG_FIELD_SORT."` ".CATEG_FIELD_SORT_ORDER);
    $tpl->assign('mainCategs', $mainCategs);


    // Latest Featured Links
    $latest_feat = $db->GetAll ("SELECT * FROM `{$tables['link']['name']}` WHERE `STATUS` = '2' {$expire_where} AND `FEATURED` = '1' ORDER BY `DATE_ADDED` DESC LIMIT 0, 10");
    $tpl->assign('latest_feat', $latest_feat );

    I prefer to post on the forum instead of PMs, then other members can benefit from the Q&As. (a fellow forum admin). :)

    I have tried that but doesn't make any difference.

    I need to go to work now so maybe I rushed it, will try again in the next few days.

    Thanks for the help.

    If you don't have any luck, I will gladly do it for you if you would just set up a temporary pass for me to do that.

    I fix many directories and I can tell you that trust should not be an issue. I have been around for a long time...
