Otsikko: Smf "Global headers and Footers"
Kirjoitti: Suke - kesäkuu 12, 2006, 12:33:22 AP
Well, it seems as though it does'nt work for me. It comes up with an error, saying:

"Can not write to/home/marksta/public_html/MgForum/smfheader.php.:"

Gawd. I posted it on teh Smf hacks forum, but I waited for 5 days, and haven't gotten a reply yet, is there anything I can do to make it work? I have what he said I should do, read:

Lainaus käyttäjältä: SmfHacksMake sure you have write and read permission to smfheader.php and smffooter.php

Then:

Lainaus käyttäjältä: SmfHacksDon't mean that. You have to make sure that both smfheader.php and smffooter.php exist in the root directory of your forum and if they do that those files have read and write permissions.

So, where exactly is my root directory? And, where exactly am I meant to see those files? And last thing, I installed it through teh forum, so I have no idea where teh flies are though, and I have no idea what to edit in it.

Help is appreciated yuh know.  :P

Your root directory is the one with index.php and Settings.php

i was using that hack, till i discovered it disabled my "preview post" function.
it also disabled my "quote" function.

otherwise you have to write to both files if you want it too work, also you may have
more luck editing the footer and header manually.
