I don't think earlier version are available? Anyone know? Thanks, TF

It looks like some of the needed web files are not uploaded or not found in the expected location. Have you checked if these files are still in your site's weather folder http://wiki.sandaysoft.com/a/Simple_Website_setup

Looking on the server I do not see anything missing? all files pic folders r all there.

Thanks,
Terry

PS it's like all the pretty is gone..

It appears your data is being sent and updated. Other than a fresh upload of the needed files, sorry I can't be of any more specific help.

Paul

This is what's on the server and thank you.

Seems OK ATM, only thing not there is a backround picture ?

I don't see the weatherstyle.css file listed. I have that in my /weather folder, and also on another site that I have helped with.

Paul

I did ad those back and now I have the original cumulus site up but not my weather blues version 1 template yet?

Ah - you didn't mention you were using different templates, and those were what you 'lost'

Did you follow: http://wiki.sandaysoft.com/a/FAQ#How_do ... release.3F

They said I did not un tic the HTML when I updated cumulus and it overrode my WB template with theirs? Bummber...

Don't you keep back-ups of your machine

I see all the files there just don't know how to get it to read them I will have my tech guy look at it tomorrow. He usually sets it all up for me I can only do small stuff. He installed the entire WB 1 for me. Thanks a bunch, Terry

The first things I do before an upgrade are suck down all my web site files (or copy them to a different folder on the webserver) and copy my local machine cumulus folder. At least doing this gives you a backup if things goes pear shaped.

Weather Blues 1 is the HTML version. So there are only 9 files to replace (the xxxT.htm equivalents of the first 9 files listed by you with .htm), and you might still have them in your download folder? If necessary you (or your technical guy) can download those files again (from http://weatherbyyou.com/dl.php?page=3&sort=3). Just remember there might be some tailoring of headings required, you might find something like this: Standard Cumulus does not use system.htm or infos.htm, so those (and the slider related files) are from WB. The good news is that all you need to restore weather blues is to re-install those 9 WB template files over the Cumulus xxxT.htm ones on your PC (Cumulus templates will be available in the originals sub-folder anyway) and Cumulus at its next web upload will give you back your look.

Cumulus installer does display the readme.txt that (near the end) suggests making a back up before upgrading, and you will see from the other replies that everyone advises this!
