I am creating a sister site to this site. It will have most of the same content with a new look:
https://fusionwellnesspt.comHere is the above site with the Samba Spa template installed and Vertex 4.0:
https://vps15082.inmotionhosting.com/~feminatemp/index.phpHere is the same site with a manual patch to Vertex 4.1:
https://vps15082.inmotionhosting.com/~feminatemp/vertex41/index.phpFinally, here is the Samba Spa Quick Start install on my server:
https://vps15082.inmotionhosting.com/~femina5/The third link shown above is the best result I've gotten after doing the patch several times. Previous attempts had given a blank page on the front end with just the error message "Template XML file not found". In all of the previous attempts I had copied the relevant Vertex files and folders over in one piece, in other words I just grabbed each folder and uploaded them whole rather than each file individually. When this failed I tried uploading the patch as one ZIP file, then unzipping it and replacing the files and folders via the cPanel File Manager. This also gave the "Template XML file not found" error. What finally worked (sort of, as seen in the third link above) was to replace only the files individually via FTP, without touching the original directory structure.
So perhaps there is an issue with my server environment regarding file ownership. It certainly isn't a permissions issue, as I spent many hours checking into this, and always concluded that all directories were 755 and files were 644.
If that is the case, perhaps that's why in the last three links above, the custom fonts are not showing. I am also having other issues in the second link with getting various modules to show correctly, but before I tackle that, I want to know that my server environment is not at fault. I have a feeling if I can get the fonts to display correctly, it will be an indicator that my other issues are fixed as well, so I'm going after this issue first. After that I will tackle various issues I'm having with modules, such as the 'S5 Image and Content Fader v4' module at the top of the home page refusing to show at anything other than full width, despite setting the width to 1170px, which is the width of the actual images being used.
I will be glad to share FTP and admin details with anyone from Shape5 who can help with this. I appreciate any help you can provide!
