Cannot get rid of Tiki install welcome page

posts: 257 United States

(moved to Admin/install forum)
I had it set to be a blog. I upgraded to 6.2, upgraded the database too. Now it goes to the welcome page. Seems to have forgotten the blog I was using for a home page.Setting the home page has always been confusing in Tiki so I just went back and did what I always do -try different settings in General and Wiki. No individual setting or combination of setting in General/Nav and/or Wiki/General works.

I've tried everything:

1)Set General/Navigation to "use Tiki feature as homepage" and chose the existing blog I used before -no dice.

2)enabled Use URL as index and put the blogs URL in as full URL with the http and without the http: No dice either time.

3) Did number two but set use Tiki feature to "Wiki" -no dice

4) In Admin/Wiki I chose another existing wiki page name to at least see if it would go to an existing wiki page (forgetting about the blog for a moment) -no dice. Creates a new welcome page with the same initial welcome page instructions and along string of numbers for a page title.

5) Tried putting URL for the blog in there (just for fun) -no dice. Creates a new welcome page with a new long string of numbers for a title.

6) Tried resetting the Wiki Home Page with the green arrow thing -says HomePage in the field. Nice -now I have the same welcome screen but it's back to being named Home Page.

7) Cursed the infernal machine. That didn't help. Pulled hair -no dice.

8) Posted here.

I'd be fine if I had to go into the database and set it there but I can't find the right table/field and I don't know if that's a bad thing to do.

There are no comments at this time.
