Great forum with easy install

[mikamedia]

Hi,

I found a great forum which is very easy to install. You don't even need webgrab for this. There is a version with or without MySQL.

1. Download EZS Forum Manager from www.ngcoders.com

2. upload the forum folder into your /cms folder

3. chmod a few files to 777 (see readme)

4. make a new module and put a simple output code:

OUTPUT:
<?
include("forum/main.php");
?>

5. go to admin.php and login (see readme)

6. within admin set the following parameter

Website: http://www.yoursite.com/cms/

Relative path: /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/yoursite.com/cms/forum/

Relative string: front_content.php?idcat=$idcat&page=forum&

That's it. Should work now.
Shouldn't take more than 10 minutes to install !

*important*
- if you don't set the relative path, you will get a PHP error (openbase dir)
- if you save the relative string, the $idcat will dissapear from the config page, but it is still saved, don't worry!
- secure your admin pages in /cms/forum/admin

Good luck

I've the a similar problem. I cannot post a topic but I can reply as a normal user. But I can make new topics in the admin-tool (as an admin!).

[hubert]

chmod-Rechte sind total offen (777)!
