- Make a database backup BEFORE DOING ANYTHING !
- What I do is, upload the newest version into a new folder you create. Create another new folder, called "oldsite". Copy ALL THE OLD FILES into the new folder ! Move ALL THE NEW FILES INTO THE ROOT OF THE SITE ! If you have already modified the config.php file, and you have copied your standard theme to the new theme folder, everything should be ok !
- At that point, you can copy from the oldsite folder the modules that you use. Be carefull when you copy the admin folder files, when upgrading to AlloPayPal 4.0, DO NOT COPY ANY OF THE OLD ADMIN FILES ! Nor do you copy the files userdate.php or users.php, they don't exist in the new version any more !!!!!
Thats just a short tutorial to help you out. Since it is my fault I am forcing you all to use Phpnuke 7.5, feel free to drop me a line should you need any help !

And here is a little help from John, http://www.guildofsecurity.co.uk. He had the same problem I did, which is that when you upgrade, certain modules are "lost"..... (They don't appear in the modules list)
Citation:
I found the problem why phpNuke was not adding new modules automatically - it might be worth making a note in case others have this problem.
The fault stems from the fact that the default nuke_modules table has been modified by users adding modules which alter this table.
The default line in root/admin/modules/modules.php
$db->sql_query("insert into " . $prefix . "_modules values (NULL, '$modlist[$i]', '$modlist[$i]', '0', '0', '1', '0', '')");
is no longer correct if users have made modifications to their nuke_modules table.
Myself, I have googletap installed which requires modifying this line thus;
Hope this helps with any debugging for users who do not have 'standard' nuke-modules tables
I also found that if you delete the database nuke_modules, and REINSTALL it with a new copy, all the modules reappear. Nut VERIFY THEM to see which are activated or not !
Each and every PhpNuke upgrade causes problems to the modules admin section.... If the link does not appear, it has to be put there... ;-(
What I do in that case is either pass by the phpmyadmin to install the module by hand, or just delete the whole table and reinstall it over again. Just takes a few minutes to reactivate or not the old modules.....
Yeah, Mr Burzi changes things seemingly on a whim.. I feel like I'm constantly adapting his personal system as opposed to configuring a flexible system..
But, I'm stuck for now, have a major site and a bunch of things custom-coded...CPG-nuke from now on, I think
But, anyways - If I have to install manually, where would I find the right table?
It's only the admin section that's not pulling new things - the modules menus all work..
Yes, but with any site that has allot of custom modules, it is not ALWAYS the fault of Nuke..... Anyhow, do the following :
Open up your access to the DB with phpmyadmin. If you don't understand what I am saying, then you will have to pay me to do it for you !
Look for the DB nuke_modules. The modules listed all have numbers, like so :
Edit Delete 2 Downloads Downloads 0 0 1 0 NULL
2 is the number of the module. Be carefull, they are not always in order ! Find the last number, say 36.
Look for the button Insert. The new window opens.
Under mid, put 37. The next free number, get it ?
title, the name of the module. REsPecT the name !
custom_title Same thing.
Then hit Go. The module will now be online in the admin section of your site, and you can now modify what you need to.
Ok, I don;t think I am explaining myself properly, but you gave me the answer I was looking for anyway
This is the problem:
I am upgrading to 7.5, I added the SPChat module and since the only admin file it had was a "Links" file, I simply added that to the module/admin folder as per this topic: http://www.nukefixes.com/ftopict-931.html
Problem is, the module added just fine (Well, after I fixed the auto-add db submission as per this post - totally forgot I ever did that on the 7.4 files ) - I see the SPChat module in the menu, and I have options for who can see it in admin. Problem is, I don't have a link to it in the actual admin section (IE: it didn't bring in the link)
From what you are saying, however, there is only the _modules database, none for the new admin section.
I'll move on and see how the other translations go
It seems the CZM-Modules makes one Minor change to the modules admin (who would have thought since it adds 40KB of code)
Basically, you have to actually click on the modules admin before it auto-populates.
A good idea, since it reduces disk and DB access, but different with no warning.
Thanks - This helped.
Oh, and my personal advise to everyone facing an upgrade: Take this chance to put include statements into the language files instead of pasting!
It makes things sooo much easier to upkeep
