Ok I made an SMF forum after all with my hosting account, and installed some mods on it and all that, but why won't words appear on it!!!! Like it will say something like: : (0) instead of Total Trade Count : (0) and there will be text areas with no words next to it.....just wondering what I'm doing wrong lol.... And also some things like links at the top and such..

No text is likely to mean it can't find the language files. Make sure that you have set a language for the site, and the relative language file exists. I've not used SMF a lot so I can't tell you exactly where they are, sorry.

Is there space where the word was supposed to be? If so then it's probably because the font color matches the background. If not, it could be missing language files, like rvalkass said. It could also be some other type of failed installation. I would reccomend re-installing and making sure you're following every step if nothing else works.

Hmm alright, I'll give it a try then ... do you think I should have tried PhP? and if so is there a way to get it to php (delete smf) if it ends up nothing works?

smf is a php-based system already. Try the previous suggestions to see if the language files are placed in the correct place and also that they exist, first.

Ok as you may have noticed by my other topic, I stated there were times where on my forum on my hosting account, words wouldn't show up. For example, a space to put words, with simply : next to it, and nothing else. This has happened countless times. Also, certain links won't show, Admin panel links won't show.... You guys told me some language files probably couldn't be found, yet how do I know where these language files are and how to fix the problem? My 'No words' topic has gotten no attention since yesterday when I requested assistance... Please help... EDIT 2: Ok what's going on!!!!!!!!!!!! 2 whole freaken days went by now and NOT ONE ANSWER ON EITHER TOPIC!!!!!!!!!! Did you people die or something I need help....I tried looking in the language things and I seriously do not get it.....P L E A S E H E L P....I can only have so much patience.... (I wanted to get this working tonight, what a shame....) This post has been edited by AlphaOfDoom: Nov 8 2007, 03:14 AM

Sign-on to your Cpanel. Doing that will take you to the Account {root} folder. Click on the file folder ICON next to public_html to move into the public_html folder. Click on the Icon to move into a folder or click on the text to have a list of available options for the folder/file. Once you find the file, you can click on the text name and a list of Options is displayed top-right of the page. One option is to edit a file, or the bottom link will display the file in your Browser.
