Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted September 3, 20231 yr Hello everyone, I've been using the Invision solution for a long time. Back then, I bought access to the forum and calendar. Then I no longer needed the calendar module. I deactivated it and forgot about it. I wanted to uninstall it today, but what a bad idea. Now I'm getting error messages all over the place and can't access the administration area. I have an error message: Quote [[Template core/admin/global/globalTemplate is throwing an error. This theme may be out of date. Run the support tool in the AdminCP to restore the default theme]] And I also get messages like this in the public area of my forum. Reading the support, I can see that one way might be to delete the cache, but I don't have access to the part allowing me to do this. Any help is welcome. Thanks

What version of Ipb do you have and what is your php version? Have you upgraded your forum since you deactivated the calendar? If you did so and you didn't upload the calendar files as you didn't plan to use it, can you reupload the calendar files as well and overwrite the current files and see if the error will go away? The error might occur due to the calendar files being out dated and not compatible with the php version.
September 3, 20231 yr Author Thank you for your reply. I have the latest version of IPB and my PHP version is 8.1. OK to download the latest calendar files but where can I find them? I have renewed my license every 6 months but only for the Forum part. I guess that's why the calendar files haven't been updated. [EDIT] Oh, I think I've got it. So I have to do a manual upgrade?
