[ABD] Country Flags 1.0.0 edits need removing.[SOLVED]

[ABD] Country Flags 1.0.0

Many...many months ago I installed this mod....back in 3.0.7 I think.....now in 3.0.9

(Removed it to install National Flags' version 2.0.4 but didn't know how to remove the right way....learned a lot since!)

I have hunted and hunted to see if I could solve this without bothering you but it looks like you may be able to advise.....if you don't mind, that is. Please see the ACP screen-shot showing some residual elements remaining...what file do I need to edit? ( keeping in mind the flag mod I have now) Appreciate any advise......or do I need to poke around in phpMyAdmin

Appreciate your time.BW

Found this

But would running......

Code: Select all

DROP TABLE phpbb_flags;
        ALTER TABLE phpbb_users DROP user_flag;
        ALTER TABLE phpbb_groups DROP group_flag;
        DELETE FROM phpbb_config WHERE config_name = 'flags_path';
        DELETE FROM phpbb_config WHERE config_name = 'require_flag';
        DELETE FROM phpbb_acl_options WHERE auth_option = 'a_flags';

possibly stuff up the current flags?

Yes, there are probably some issues with the two if you have the old one still partially installed and the new one installed and being used.

If I understand correctly, you have the National Flags mod installed and in use, correct?

[Blackwolf]

Yes.....that's correct

I'm not sure how you could have not totally removed the previous mod before installing this one, they have database entries with the same name on them that would likely cause issues unless they were designed to be compatible. You'll probably need to have someone go through and manually check all the edits and database to make sure everything is correct.

Thanks for the reply. The forum crashed last year.....board was a mess of 3.06-3.07 files....totally stuffed it up in my n00bnish. All up to date now

Its really just a cosmetic issue now.....no impact on the board. I have rechecked all the edits from the old flag mod.....no remnants remain. I think it must be in the database.That I am not going to mess with until I have more experience under the belt.
