How do you install mods for ipb 1.2 because everytime I try it comes up with a my sql error for example

mySQL query error: SELECT moderator.mid as is_mod, moderator.allow_warn, m.id, m.name, m.mgroup, m.password, m.email, m.restrict_post, m.view_sigs, m.view_avs, m.view_pop, m.view_img, m.auto_track,
m.mod_posts, m.language, m.skin, m.new_msg, m.show_popup, m.msg_total, m.time_offset, m.posts, m.joined, m.last_post,
m.last_visit, m.last_activity, m.dst_in_use, m.view_prefs, m.points, m.org_perm_id, m.temp_ban, g.*
FROM trap17_ipbmembers m
LEFT JOIN trap17_ipbgroups g ON (g.g_id=m.mgroup)
LEFT JOIN trap17_ipbmoderators moderator ON (moderator.member_id=m.id OR moderator.group_id=m.mgroup )
WHERE m.id=1

mySQL error: Unknown column 'm.points' in 'field list'
mySQL error code:

First you need to specify which mod your installing so we can help you and secondly ipb1.2 is so outdated i dont think many people will want to help.
A little more detail will benefit both you and I, well potentially

that error was from trying to install ibstore 1.25

There may be a installation file ?? That you need to run to install the sql tables and databases in your system thingy

yes try to install the installation file it came with, if that does not work go over your changes. Though i think, that m.points should go right after m.temp_ban. I am not for sure because i am not that good at php

Though, you can get a newer version of IPB because they restored the trials, they have limits though unlike v2.0PF4

Sometimes the stuff you install from the Fantastico is a bit um crap lmao..I mean..m I dont know ...but I installed the XMB and loads of files were missing and so were parts of the PHP...I think...I had to add some.... Upload some things etc...

It doesnt matter anymore I fixed it i just had to edit the files in the admin cpanel

That error means , that m.points is undefined ...
Make sure you followed every step.

i know i went through the installation again and it said


users will receive an error that m.points table can't be found until you access your forum admin (http://www.yoursite.com/forums/admin.php) and click on the IBShop link. Once you click that link, the error will go away.)
