Can NEVER install mods, no matter what

[S.T.A.R.S]

Jesus. When i added "temp" and made it writable it worked. I think! ha

[S.T.A.R.S]

Thanks so much

I couldnt have done it without you, i appreciate all thetime youve put into helping me ! thank you.

Also will these mods work with other themes?

There ya go. I told you it was a permissions problem. 

Here is a handy little script to change your folder and file permissions very quickly. Copy and paste into a new file, change the value for $dirModes and $fileModes to value you want in line 3 and on line 12 enter the path you want it to perform the changes in. Save as "change_permissions.php". As it is, it will do all files and folders plus recurse through subfolders in the current directory where you place this file. Then just run the "change_permissions.php" from your web browser.

Code Select Expand

<?php

function rChmod( $dir = "./", $dirModes = 0755, $fileModes = 0644 ){
$d = new RecursiveDirectoryIterator( $dir );
foreach( new RecursiveIteratorIterator( $d, 1 ) as $path ){
if( $path->isDir() ) chmod( $path, $dirModes );
else if( is_file( $path ) ) chmod( $path, $fileModes );
echo $path."<br />\n";
}
}

rChmod( "./" );

?>

It may or may not work with other themes. When you install a theme, if it needs to make changes to other theme files it will test and see if it can or not. If all tests are successful just click the checkbox for that theme and it will apply to that theme.

And you are welcome. Glad you got it working.

******.

I completely screwed it up.

I installed a shoutbox, everything was fine. And now everytime i enter my site


Fatal error: Call to undefined function: shoutbox_load() in /var/www/vhosts/mmogamer.co.uk/httpdocs/index.php on line 155


Appears :O

[b4pjoe]

Which shoutbox is it?

[S.T.A.R.S]

Ah, its back.

I thought id be smart and change emulate version to 2.0 RC3, as it was only for RC3

I got the default index.php back now. :O

thanks for ur help bud i appreciate it

[S.T.A.R.S]

You can do that but you don't want to try installing it if it shows errors. Usually if it doesn't show errors it will work okay. User beware though.

There a lot of great mods. If you want a combo chat/shoutbox checkout the AJAX Chat mod.

Also this simple portal, to design your own homepage.

This is compatible with 2.0 right?

[b4pjoe]

I haven't tried it but with version emulation it would probably work. You might want to have a quick read of the Simple Portal Support Topic.

Any idea why the "temp" folder keeps getting deleted automatically?

Hello,

The simplest mod packages that don't require the change of themes are installed OK.

However when I try yo install the packages (or languages) that require the change of themes, I get the notification (in Russian):

"Necessary FTP information

Some files which the package manager should change, don't have the rights to be writable. Change these rights using FTP

FTP server ..."

However I don't have FTP access to my forum, only the protected connection.
I've checked and changed all the access rights.

What can I do?

Thanks in advance!
