    Morning Bob,
    upgraded from 1.3.0 on the live site to 2.1.1. The upgrade went without any problems.
    Going to the Showcase home, I get the following server error:
    I have disabled the showcase for now.

    rating_sum is a NEW field. Can you confirm that the xf_nflj_showcase_item table has that field? If not, then the upgrade failed.

    There is no rating_sum field in that table.
    Incidentally I'm getting similar errors about rating_count and that field isn't in that table either.

    ya, there were a bunch of new fields added, so your upgrade did not run successfully. Is Chris still doing some work for you? If so, I can have him check to see why your upgrades are not taking as this is the 2nd time for you that is doing the same exact thing. Its like its running the XML before the new install.php is uploaded.

    If those are missing, then you have a LOT of stuff missing..... just take a look at everything that should have run along with those..

    Do these new tables exist?

    Yes all those tables exist. Chris is indeed working for us.
    Shall I run the upgrade again?

    Running it again will only execute steps in the installer if the version ID is less than the current version ID, so all you'd be doing is refreshing templates and phrases (which won't help you).

    Can you look these alters and see which ones RAN and which ones didn't?

    If all of that ran except for the items table alters, you can probably just get away with running the alters for the item table via phpmyadmin and then rebuilding all the caches for showcase.

    That's the only query which failed, yes.
    I ran it in phpmyadmin and it failed again because one of the indexes already existed.
    I removed that index instruction and ran it again and it worked.
    Can't remember which index it was, but you might want to look at that.

    We're really getting there, now!
    So the existing showcase is working nicely:
    http://www.avforums.com/showcase/the-avforums-home-cinema.1/#timages
    except the tabs aren't appearing when I open the thread. Neither in our style or the default Xenforo style. Is that a setting somewhere?

    Also it appears that attachments are not being displayed in showcase text.
    E.g.
    Code:
    [ATTACH=full]123456[/ATTACH]
    If people are creating Showcases based on threads, it would be nice if attachments could be displayed.

    Edit the showcase item and make sure that the thread_id is set. If it say's 0, then it got unset during the upgrade process somehow. Just set it back to the correct thread ID and all should be fine.

    That is the one I just looked at (and posted above) and was working FINE 42 minutes ago. There is obviously something that is conflicting here. Without being able to SEE certain things (like quickly look at the thread table and see if the discussion_type is set to showcase_item for example). What happens with that particular one if you edit, change the discussion ID to 0, hit save, then edit it again and change the discussion id back to 1551974?

    NOTE: The reason for setting it to 0 and saving it is so that when you edit it again and add the thread ID back, the DataWriter will do some extra stuff because its being CHANGED (where as if you just save it again, it won't run that particular action in the DW, cause the thread ID wasn't being changed).

    Let me know the outcome.

    Another query.
    Tags.
    The natural way to add tags is to hit Enter after each one. Tabbing only takes you to the next field. So there isn't any other way then hitting Enter to submit several tags. As far as I can see. And that submits the form. So you have to type a tag, hit Enter, re-edit the item, type a tag, hit Enter, re-edit etc. etc.
    Would it be possible to alter the behaviour of the Enter key so that it doesn't submit the form while you are entering tags?

    Also, I don't know what tags are used for elsewhere, but it strikes me as a good idea to use them for the brands of kit used in members' home cinemas. JVC, Panasonic, OPPO etc. And in different categories of showcase, it might make more sense to use different things for tags.
    This then makes me wonder whether it might be possible to have a different phrase for the 'help' text (below the tag entry box) for each category.

    I DO think there is a BUG in the edit item functionality tho that is causing threads to get unassociated somehow. It only happens in rare instances and I am pretty sure it has to do with my template syntax logic and permissions for moderation.

    If you add a comma after the tag, it starts a new tag. I've added HINT text to the edit form explaining that.

    Found it (and fixed it). It happens when giving a usergroup the moderator permission to Manage Thread Association without giving that same user group the ability to Moderate Items (which is driven by two showcase moderator permissions.. 'Edit items by anyone' & 'Approve / unapprove items').

    Excellent. I have also posted a thread in the suggestion forum, thanks.
