Navigation Disappeared..

[Mousie]

Okay, so I attempted to upgrade my employer's website. They were running 1.0.2.

Upgrades from there, to 1.4 went fine, no noticable dramas. I attempted to upgrade as far as 1.7.1 (which our host doesn't support), and then rolled back to 1.6.7 when I realised what was going on. Somewhere along the line, I've lost the navigation completely. All of the pages are there, still in the content folder, but I have absolutely no navigation.

So... I don't know where I lost it. I'm a tad confused, and really need to get this site back up and functional as sooooooon as possible.

My question to you guys is, is there a way I can roll it right back to an earlier version to fix it? I tried going back to 1.5.0 - no dice.

Try to enable debug in config.php and look in your error logs.
Maybe is changed some params in MenuManager but I don't remember in that old version

One thing that has been changed is that menu-templates are db-driven now.... So check the old folder of MenuManager, for its file-templates, and create a db-template with that content. Make sure that the name of the menu-template reflects the one called in the page-template. Or change the call in the page-template correspondingly.

You can also PM me login info, I can take a look.

Unfortunately, I can't give out login information, as it is not my personal website.

Is there any way to just roll it back to 1.4 or earlier, and just start back from the start? I'm a tad confused with the whole db-template thing...

What I was meaning is the following. In the 1.0.2 set, you had a MenuManager template, in the /Modules/MenuManager/Template folder. The one there, with the same name as the one called in your page-template should be opened.

So if you call {menu template='this-one'}, then you look for the 'this-one.tpl'.

Open that one, and create a template in Layout -> MenuManager. Paste the logic there of the file that you had.

Save it, and change the page-templates {menu}-call to the name of the menu-template that you just saved.

I think that that is easier, then doing a roll-back

Or replace {menu template='this-one'} with {menu template='this-one.tpl'} in your template and look if works.
If ok copy in DB (follow RonnyK advice) because that it's best practies

Okay, so .. we moved our site to a server supporting PHP5.

Please tell me that now, fixing this is going to be as simple as running the upgrades...
