This is my first time using phpBB. It's good, but one problem. You have to manually install mods >.> The mod I wanted to install would take me at least half an hour to do, which is ridiculous. Don't they have some kind of auto mod installer?
 
Yes. It's called AutoMOD. But I highly recommend that you install the MODs manually. I've never touched AutoMOD myself (to be honest, I wouldn't dare 😛), but from what I've heard, it seems to find enjoy producing fatal errors.
 
I've heard of AutoMOD, but it isn't compatible with the mod that I need to install. Anyways, I guess I'm going to be busy tomorrow ;P

Which MOD is that? I've never really had any problems with AutoMOD. But when I do I usually fix them myself.
 
Well, it's an attributes mod. It says on the description that this can only be manually installed.
 
What??

4 hours what you doing building it as well, that mod takes 30 minutes max to install. I have never installed a mod that has taken me longer then that and been doing it for a good number of years. People don't need to panic when adding a mod as if you use notepad++ to do the file edits, then if you make a mistake you just undo what you did. Most mods consist of copying and pasting code and uploading files to the correct folder, not exactly rocket science now is it :sleep:
 
This was on my third mod install, taking all files and editing it Notepad++ and then re-uploading. Got it done just fine, though 😉
 
Seriously if it took you that long I won't bother god what were you doing for it to take that longloser.gif
 
What was I doing? I was installing the mod! It's and advanced mod, Quick Title Edition. Plus, I am still a beginner. Just because it says it will take 30 or 45 minutes doesn't mean it will 😉
 
Yes that time is the maximum time it should take you, beginner or not. Not your personally but it concerns me that people run forums with out an ounce of knowledge about the software they are using, then I forget this place is full of kiddies playing admin. :roll:

On a serious note, no one should think about running a forum until they at least know the basics of how the software runs and operates first.
 
:lol: Dude calm down, there's no guarentee on the amount of time anything takes 😛
I'm pretty sure I know at least an OUNCE of phpbb3 😛
Plus, why do you care about it so much, eh?
 
Why are we talking about QTE? Get TTM. It's been updated and I've installed it at least 10 times with no errors. It has everything QTE has to offer and more. Plus it doesn't take 4 hours or 30 minutes to install, it takes 5 minutes tops.
