2.1.8b2 No 'howdy register block'

camo

After upgrade no 'howdy' block appears on home page. How to get it back?

Follow the procedure there:

Some themes could use a revamp afterwards indeed.

I'm not using tarballs, so no idea exactly. (I'm using git fetch and then merge).

luc

Update to beta 4.

For this particular issue, did you delete all ini files from the cache dir?

camo

yes! if i upgrade again to beta 4 will it reappear?

luc

well, even when my install was close to beta 2, it was there IIRC.
Anyway, upgrade, nobody cares about a beta of 4 months ago.
And yes, you should delete ini files too. (maybe even Smarty cache templates).

camo

Should i upload (overwrite) the vanilla files completely? will this mess with current plugins themes config etc?

camo

ok ill give that a shot. thanks :)
