Description

I upgraded my Tiki from 4 to 8. Perhaps it was premature to upgrade a busy Tiki with many users to Tiki8. Anyway, I found a few issues. I am not sure if they would be characterised as bugs, or just stuff that has not yet been implmented. Here are the issues:

(1) The login prompt kept floating around the screen, appearing and disappearing in random places at random times, so I went to Admin-Modules to try to fix it.

(2) The next issue, is that in Admin-Modules, the tabs do not work. Clicking on a tab does nothing. Fortunately, I can proceed by clicking on the "No-tabs" button. Good idea that.

(3) Editing the login module didnt seem to help. So I came up with a cunning plan: Delete the module and then add it back in again. In hindsight, that was a pretty risky thing to do in beta software.

(4) I deleted the login module, but now I cannot add it back in! According to the instruction text, new modules can be dragged from the "All Modules" tab. But this either doesnt work or has not yet been implemented.

My Tiki is at http://lockbox.seanbdurkin.id.au

Workaround

I realise that I will still be able to login by manually navigating to ~/tiki-login_scr.php , but that is not a viable solution for my 80+ users. So I need some basic advice. Here are my options as I see them:

(Option One): Roll back to Tiki 4? Rolling back seems to be risky and time-consuming.
(Option Two): Some kind of direct SQL to add the login module back in?
(Option Three): Post an apology to my users, and wait for a correction or progress in implementation?
(Option Four): I'm an idiot, and this is actually a user-issue because I missed something obvious?

Please advise.

Faithfully,
Sean B. Durkin

Keywords

The following is a list of keywords that should serve as hubs for navigation within the Tiki development and should correspond to documentation keywords.

Each feature in Tiki has a wiki page which regroups all the bugs, requests for enhancements, etc. It is somewhat a form of wiki-based project management. You can also express your interest in a feature by adding it to your profile. You can also try out the Dynamic filter.
