Hello all....after a recent update to newest version, I have a project stuck looking for upgrades....anyone have any ideas as to how to get out of this loop?

Thanks,

I get logged in, but all I see is the div.ui-widget-overlay and am not able to modify anything....the overlay has 'Checking for Update' and it never goes away...so...i can't even do a restore or anything.

Help or advice would be great..

thanks in advance...

You can turn off the whole update checking process by defining some constants in config/site.

Have a look through the howto's for whitelabelling and similar. There are detailed instructions. There are also previous forum threads on this, so searching the forums may also point you to the details of the solution.

I usually pass the Newsflow Overlay (it bothers me and most of my clients with admin rights) with this line in the site.php file:

define('ENABLE_NEWSFLOW_OVERLAY', false);


You can always manually check in /dashboard/news/ for news and updates.
Hope this solves your problem.
