Yeah, im really new at all this...Im running phpBB3, latest release, on a paid ftp server. Im trying to install the Advertisement Management MOD which I found at the following link.
http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopi ... &t=1146135
Im not using the style it was made to fit, so its a no-duh that its going to take some guessing and trial and error on the file edits. My biggest question is, where do I copy the files that came with the MOD to? It states I should copy them using this format:
The way my ftp server is setup is a tad weird. The forum isnt installed on the main directory, but another branch off of it, which i named /forum
I tried uploading the entire /root folder from the install folder and it gave me errors when trying to access my board. The errors stated that the files couldnt be found, which makes me think im putting them in the wrong spot.
So heres my questions:
1. Can I (With some editting) use this MOD with any skin?
2. Where should I copy the root/*.* to on my ftp server?
As a side note, I would also like to ask about adding a url icon to my site using a meta tag. Because the forum doesnt have headers and footers in the ACP, im assuming id just edit the meta tags directly into the overall_header.html file in styles -> avalonblue -> template
Or is there another place I need to edit as well, such as an index page somewhere? The only reason I ask is because when I insert
(Being My Meta Tag) Into the overall_header.html file nothing happens.
Thanks for any help you guys can offer.
