Hey guys - okay, I got the site upgraded to 2.5. But the template I was using was a free template designed for 1.5 and doesn't work now. So...instead of spending a bunch of time trying to editing the template to get it to work... I just found a similar template that's designed for 2.5 and will go in and edit that.

BUT, before I spend the time working on it... I've noticed that my menu no longer works. When I click on a page, it's giving me a 404 error telling me the category doesn't exist. But one of the page (OUR STAFF) doesn't even link to a category...it links to an article. Also...the Calendar page links to a new component that I just installed...and it doesn't work either...

Thoughts?

www.crossfire-ministries.org/jupgrade/ is the website.
Blessings,
~Anita

See if SEF urls are turned off in the global configuration. You're upgraded site wont be able to use SEF until you move it to it's main directory.

Turn off SEF and let us what happens.

You're welcome. I struggled with that the first time I did an upgrade too. Took me hours to figure it out, but now it's simple - which is so true about so many aspects of Joomla!

Cheers,
Ed
