Hello,

I succeeded to upgrade from 1.4 to 1.8.1. Everything went ok, except that the admin themes (menus etc...) are still in the OLD form. Is there a way to correct this ?
Do I have, for the rest a 1.8.1 or some hybrid version ?


In other words I don't get the nice dropdown menu .... like it should
Trying to upgrade to 1.9.4.1 did not succeed for the admin part, so I revert to 1.8.1 which functionned.

When you upgrade you have to clear the cache of your browser and you can get some nicer new functionality by choosing the NCleangrey admin theme in the site admin and in user preferences...

Unfortunately, it seems to be something else.

Finally I am ashamed of my mistake, but as I am not the only inattentive user here the solution of this:

The admin template needs to be changed in both:
Site Admin > Global Settings
And
My Preference>User Preferences

Doing it only in the first one will not change the look of the admin.
