Cannot enable extensions after upgrade

I have been working all day in trying to get two things done:
1) Upgrading from Vanilla.1.0.1 to Vanilla.1.0.3
2) Changing the folder where the forum is located to a simpler URL:
from here:
http://pochapocha.com/captiva/forum/Vanilla.1.0.1
to here:
http://pochapocha.com/cc/
The problem I am currently up against, is that after I put this code into extensions.php:
if (!defined('IN_VANILLA')) exit();
. . . I then cannot go into Settings and select an extension. For instance, I downloaded "Smiles", but cannot enable it. I get a pop-up that says: PARAM 'SMILE'
I already had "Improved Sidepanel" enabled, but had disabled is some weeks ago. So, I thought to give that one a whirl to see if the problem lay with "Smile" or with the enabling process. Sure enough, I got a similar pop-up box.
This is the first day I have had to work on this project in weeks, and the day is coming to an end. Should I just go back to Vanilla.1.0.1 and wait for 1.0.4, or is there something I have missed?
I am only working at the old URL at present, having abandoned for the moment the idea of going to a simpler URL, as the extension problem got to where I lost the BB code, and so out went the formatting to poems posted. I decided that if I can get the old URL working, that will be a huge first step, then I can worry about transferring to a better URL.
Yours,

This has me stumped. I am unable to enable extensions after upgrading to 1.0.3.
Please help if you can. I have left everything the way it was so anyone can view. If there is no solution, then I need to go back to 1.0.1 so I can have a fully functional forum.
Yours,

An unfixable bug?
It says: Format comments as Text or Html

Actually it does not show on mine!
I seem to remember installing an extension with a preference to default it to HTML and not show the option below the comments box.
Later...
Also this setting under Account Tab/Forum Preferences...
Show the comment format type selector when adding comments
When updating something I had to ensure it worked on all styles, the more styles, the more work for me.
I appreciate you wanting them to feel at home but I think it's more important they feel they belong to a community.
Good luck, I admire your tenacity.
