Stuck after adding "Thumb Gallery by vivid" - and cant disable it

Permalink 2 users found helpful
I installed this new block type, and added it to my page. In the config section it was asking me for a fileset, without giving me any help or allowing me to enter anything anywhere

.. Now I get an error

"Call to a member function getFileSetID() on a non-object"

I can't get in the admin panel to disable it (or do anything else)
also can enter edit mode to remove this block.

If I remove /public_html/packages/vivid_thumb_gallery I get an even worse error :-)

Help! :)

Never mind, I renamed the area in my template.

Nasty little error though..

The correct solution is, before you start, create at least one fileset. Under files in the dashboard.

Though I doubt if anyone will read this problem before it's too late :)

You got it right!
Just googled to this post, after I got stuck :)

Can You clarify, how you solved it?

in my template file I had an area something like this..

$a = new Area('Main');
                $a->display($c);


I renamed it

$a = new Area('Main2');
                $a->display($c);


However, with hindsight, I could have just deleted the last saved version. So click on Cog at top left / Versions / Select the top version / click delete

you can go to the dashboard at yoursite.com/index.php/dashboard and uninstall the offending addon. That will remove all associated blocks and should fix the broken page.

I doubt of uninstalling the package...
