Hallo,

I set up a FUDforum for testing first on a laptop and took it later to the productive server.

Therefore I performed the following tasks:
- Installing FUDforum on the server
- overwrote the globals.php with a optimized one
- rebuild and optimized the theme
- overwrote the theme/default/forum.css with a customized one and theme/default/images/*.* with customized ones

Some days it worked but then several errors came up, so that I did the same process again and again. Because there is data stored in the forum in the meanwhile, I also have to overwrite the data directory, is that write?

Anyway after these actions, the Forum doesn't work properly. I get "call to undefined functions"-errors almost everywhere. Also when I try to enter the AdminControlPanel I first have to log in again (don't know what the _hs means under the headline Login Into the Forum), and then I get the follwing error message:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: q_singleval() in D:\forum\adm\admloginuser.php on line 22

I tried so many things and time is running away for it is in the meanwhile running on a productive system.

Please help! What steps do I have to perform to bring the layout, the settings (globals.php) and the data to a new installed forum?

Thanks in advance,

Lynky

I am not sure how you optimized GLOBALS.php but changing that file is a bad idea. If your layouts changes were just to replace forum.css.tmpl and the images then you can simply install a new forum and copy those files over followed by the theme rebuild.

Hallo,
I didn't directly change the GLOBALS.PHP. I used the Administrator's menu for it.
Can I export/import the settings in this file in other way as copying it? IF I copy it and overwrite an existing one (like I did) - does it any "harm" to the functionality of the new forum?

Thanks,

Lynky

The file is really just a PHP script with a bunch of variables having their values set in it. So copying is really the easiest way to backup/restore it.
