2. Edit config.txt to suite your site. $themepath = "/your/path/to/forum/Prefs"; $datpath = "/your/path/to/forum/Members"; (this will be the same as your $templates in Settings.pl)
For this section of the settings, I have entered this information:

Can anyone poke an error? After installing, the problem arises that I don't see ANYTHING to do any "administration" with, and as Admin for the forum, I myself am BANNED from using the shoutbox. Surely i screwed up. I have replaced the modified "BoardIndex.pl" with the backup I made so no one can see the universally banned shoutbox. I'd appreciate any help. |

Ok, so I got it to where it lets me try to post a shout. However, now it always says I'm not logged in. My cookies match rather perfectly, at that. |

These path's are incorrect:
|
Code
$themepath = "http://forum.beyondtenor.com/CGI-BIN/forum/Prefs";
$datpath = "http://forum.beyondtenor.com/CGI-BIN/forum/Members"; |
|
They should be directory paths and ont URL's Mine would be:
|
Code
$themepath = "/home/fhlinux201/p/pcfixzone.co.uk/user/cgi-bin/forum/Prefs";
$datpath = "/home/fhlinux201/p/pcfixzone.co.uk/user/cgi-bin/forum/Members"; |

I'm still not getting it to work. Hmm.... Maybe this can help. This is my Settings.pl portion regarding Directories, extended to viewing cookies settings.
Quoted Text
# Directories Sets $root = "."; $code = "./Code"; $boards = "./Boards"; $prefs = "./Prefs"; $members = "./Members"; $messages = "./Messages"; $modsdir = "./Mods"; $images = "/blahdocs/images"; $simages = "/blahdocs/Smilies"; $avsurl = "/blahdocs/Avatars"; $avdir = "/kunden/homepages/10/d253580238/htdocs/Forum/blahdocs/Avatars"; $realurl = " http://forum.beyondtenor.com/CGI-BIN/forum/";$bdocsdir = "/blahdocs"; $helpdesk = ""; $languages = "./Languages"; $templates = "/kunden/homepages/10/d253580238/htdocs/Forum/blahdocs/template"; $templatesu = "/blahdocs/template"; $buttons = "/blahdocs/buttons"; $bdocsdir2 = "/kunden/homepages/10/d253580238/htdocs/Forum/blahdocs"; # Settings $regto = qq~BeyondTenor~; $eadmin = [email protected]~; $cookpre = qq~BSVF_Forum~;
This is the config.txt file, ommitting my password field for security reasoning:
Quoted Text
<?php // Configuration Page $numofposts = "10"; // Number of posts to display $allposts = "100"; // Number of posts to display per page in archive $badlang = "1"; // Censor out bad language 1 = On, 0 = Off $maxchars = "100"; // Number of characters allowed in message field $imagepath = "images"; // Folder name where smilies are stored. NO Trailing slash $display_shout = "1"; // Turn the Shoutbox On or Off, used when performing Admin functions. 1 =
Yes, 0 No $showdate = "1"; // Display date and time when user hovers mouse over post. 1 = On, 0 = Off $ShoutRefreshTime = 30; // Change this to suite $title = "BSVF Shout Box"; // Change this to what ever.... $admin = "BeyondTenor"; // Admin username $password = ""; // password for username $floodtime = "5"; // Flood control time. In seconds the time before the same user can post another message. If you don't want any flood control change this to zero (0) // Change the following 2 lines to reflect your DOCUMENT_ROOT.... $themepath = "/kunden/homepages/10/d253580238/htdocs/Forum/CGI-BIN/forum/Prefs"; $datpath = "/kunden/homepages/10/d253580238/htdocs/Forum/CGI-BIN/forum/Members"; // Change this if you have changed the default cookie prefix.... $username = $_COOKIE['BSVF_Forum']; ?>
Anything else? Thank you so far, Martin! |

If your $realurl is correct:
|
Code
$themepath = "/kunden/homepages/10/d253580238/htdocs/CGI-BIN/forum/Prefs";
$datpath = "/kunden/homepages/10/d253580238/htdocs/CGI-BIN/forum/Members"; |

If your real url path is http://www.beyondtenor.com/Forum/CGI-BIN/forum, you can modify your paths to this, it should work.
|
Code
$themepath = "/kunden/homepages/10/d253580238/htdocs/Forum/CGI-BIN/forum/Prefs";
$datpath = "/kunden/homepages/10/d253580238/htdocs/Forum/CGI-BIN/forum/Members";

Hmm... it appears as though your forum doesn't have themes properly setup. Did you setup your themes in settings.pl? |

Ok. I had to modify the Settings.pl for themes. Minor stupid mistake, that I probably did. Ok, so now it all works great, except there are no images showing for the shoutbox. Aside from that, all is great. MAJOUR THANKS MARTIN! |

I don't know what you changed but I see no images across your whole site and a 404 where the shoutbox should be? |

I reverted back to the original Settings.pl backup I had. By labeling my urls as "/Forum/..." all of my image links and such were to " http://forum.beyondtenor.com/Forum" and that's redundant. " http://forum.beyondtenor.com/" and " http://www.beyondtenor.com/Forum" are the same location. Did you have that problem before you changed things? No one else has a problem now. But when it was all right for you, all of us had a problem. And my images in the shoutbox are fixed. You do that, Martin? |
