Missing tabs, languages, categories

[BillyHardcore]

Hi,

 

Using ps 1.3.7

 

I recently tried adding a new tab in the BO panel. Which seemed to work just fine.

An hour later, I log in again, only to find lots of stuff missing.

 

I rush to check the DB, which still has all data.

 

I manually removed the tabs physically on the server, and in the database, but still no luck.

 

Anyone with ideas? :-)

Hi Billy,

After making your changes, did you clear your cache and regenerate htaccess?

Hi,

 

I've tried clearing the compile folder in smarty, but regenerating .htaccess has never even crossed my mind.

 

Could you perhaps elaborate?

 

Regards, Billy

I found out that Prestashop is trying to load

the jquery datepicker module, which is named after its language (ui-datepicker-en or ui-datepicker-de)

It only wants to load ui-datepicker-

which tells me that I have an issue with incorrect language assignment.

 

after fiddling around the db, all language fields are gone. for instance

 

prefix_configuration_lang is empty, etc..

 

I've manually added the danish language into prefix_lang

But to manually update all the missing fields seems burdensome, perhaps there is another way??

Hi Billy,

In your Back Office, go to Tools > Generators and click "Generate htaccess file." Let me know if that works for you.

Hello again,

 

After manually adding the Generator tab from mysql interface, I generated a new .htaccess in the root location,

without any luck I'm afraid.

 

What's more, I think my entire translation part of the DB somehow got deleted, Categories have no name or description, and none of the tables/fields in the DB have the Translation/Language ID set anymore.
