Panzer you can create a new directory and upload all the files of IPB in it...Make sure that you are using the legitmate copy of IPB 2.0 (In case of cracked copy, your account will be suspended).

Secondly, I wont have an idea on how much time it may take

Thirdly, it depends on which MOD you are using...and if you are looking for detailed help then you can refer to the support site of that particular mod

and then, if there is no site for that particular mod, then come on over to http://forumize.org its a site that will help you with your forums no matter the problem, OpaQue has approved it to be trap17's offical Fourm BB Support biggrin.gif

but generally there is a readme with step by step instructions on how and where to put them...

I have uploaded IPB to my sites in the past and it takes roughly 10 minutes. When you make the new directory make sure to name it because that is how people get to your forums. So if you call it monkey it will be located at www.yourdomain.com/monkey Most every mod comes with an installation manual of some sort. Look for a ReadMe or Install Guide with the files that you download for the mod.

Well, i made a new directory called forums. I uploaded the enire content of the IPB folder (unzipped) onto it. I tried going to

www.mysite.trap17.com/forums
forums.mysite.trap17.com

Both are 'this page cannot be displayed'

Can anyone please help?

check that you've made the forums directory in 'www' folder

hmm, i sorta followed that how to set up a phpbbfm forum tutorial. I am uploading them in the public_html folder. Thats alright isnt it?

Reply

serverph
yup, panzer. www and public_html are one and the same. you should make your forums directory inside of either. the www just acts as an alias of sorts for public_html.

Panzer
Well...
I have uploaded the entire IPB 1.3 into the public folder. I tried to follow the 'how to make a phpbbfm' guide but i am stumped on

11. Now your going to assign the user you just made, to the database you made before. Find where it says "Add user to database" and there should be 2 drop down menus. One of them, being the user, and the second, the database. Don't worry about all those checkboxes, it should already be set on "All" for you. In the first drop-down, find "YouUserName_forum" and then in the second one, do the same thing. And click "Add user to database".


There is no such thing. I tried following the rest of the instructions but the same thing happened, NOTHING!

I am disheartened and confused can somebody please help me? (or write a guide on how to do it)

where are you looking for this assign user thing at??

you should be looking for it in your MySQL Database manager, the assign user screen should look like the image attached

How do i get to the installing screen? Ive tried
MYURL.com/forums
MYURL.com/forums/install/installer.php

and a few veriations

your not spamming up the forums, your giving other people the chance to look here if they have the same problem, and now that that is done, you should just enter the following settings when instaling your forum

Database user: panzer_forum
Database name: panzer_forum
Database password: whatever you made the password


i am only guessing that those are the database user and database names...
