and i am not sure how to do this one, when i open the .htaccess it is blank--maybe because i have not completed the first 5 steps that i posted at the begining of this post.
| Code:
|
o Method 1: (for Apache server)
create/modify file .htaccess in phpBB root directory
add/edit this line:
DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm portal.php index.php

Open any templates you have on your website (if no new are installed, it is only subSilver) under templates and upload them into that directory, e.g. /templates/subsilver and /templates/yourtemplate

|

Just upload that file into the root directory (with index.php, login.php, memberlist.php and all the subdirectories like admin, cgi-bin, docs).

Again, put it in the root directory (see above).

Open any templates you have and put it in the same place you put them in the first stage I showed you.

Look for the images subdirectory and upload there.

Just don't do this. Do Method 2. Right-click, Save Target As/Save Link As here Just upload that file into your main directory.
I hope I was clear enough. Good luck!  |

So, are you sorted now? If not, look back to the last thing I said, that will redirect your website on load. |

|

The Txt document says:
Installation Level: Easy
## Installation Time: 10 minutes
But perhaps that is for homosapiens, when it comes to web design and code- I have not descended from the trees. Is there a limited cranial capacity newbie guide to installing EZPortal.
Thanks |

To begin with, what does this mean:
[ IN-LINE FIND ]
-[ IN-LINE BEFORE, ADD ]
[ BEFORE, ADD ] |

I went over this a bit in IM but I'll post here as well to maybe further clarify things:
[IN-LINE FIND] - This is usually preceded by a [FIND] of some sort. For instance if you were told to [FIND] this line:
| Code:
|
|
$hello = "Hello World!";
|
And then you were told to [IN-LINE FIND] this:
You would want to be looking at only that part of the total line.
To further use the example above the [IN-LINE BEFORE, ADD] might be something like
| Code:
|
|
"This is a test." .
|
and you would add that bit of code directly before the other portion so the full line would look something like this:
| Code:
|
|
$hello = "This is a test." . "Hello World!";
|
If, instead you were told to [BEFORE, ADD] this piece of code:
| Code:
|
|
$test = "This is a test.";
|
You would add that on a blank line above the code you originally found, so the final result would look like this:
| Code:
|
$test = "This is a test.";
$hello = "Hello World!";
|
Now there is a blank line between the two lines instead of them being together in the same line.
Hopefully that makes some sense.
