| Posted: Sat Aug 18, 2007 5:22 pm Post subject: just where does the copied code go? | |
way down in the how to install.txt before the sql bit is a 'copy' bit - where do i copy that code to??? I'm normally ok at working these details out but this one has got me stumped i've tried copying it to just after where the ' <!-- BEGIN switch_textual_confirm -->' stuff went but obviously that wasn't right because when i looked at the registration page on my forum I'm seeing seven failures like this Warning: main(./includes/functions_tc.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory ---- etc the failure is referring to the code I've obviously put in the wrong place just where does the copied code go? help would be appreciated graham |

Sorry, my English isn't good, and I failed to understand your request completely. Please reword it: imagine you are talking to a 5-years girl 
You need to copy a file from the Textual Confirmation distribution package to the phpBB installation directory on the server. _________________ Oleg Parashchenko, bbAntiSpam Do you love our tools? Please sponsor further development! |

Easy – my niece – she’s 28 now but this is what I found worked best. ‘Sit down, shut up and listen’ followed by and very loudly ‘I said, be quiet’ - sometimes it even worked, no chance of it working now unfortunately ------------- Hi Oleg, thanks for replying Your English is a lot better than you give yourself credit for  I now realise I've had one of my incredibly thick moments – copy the files (not code) to directories, so obvious
 And now done, all is now working
Thanks Graham |

| Funny about niece.
Don't worry about the thick moment: the installation instructions are far from being clear; the chances of misinterpretation are big. Congratulations with successful installation! _________________ Oleg Parashchenko, bbAntiSpam Do you love our tools? Please sponsor further development! |

| i have been looking for the folder includes/functions_tc.php, but can't find it. i have one that says includes/functions.php but not with the _tc.php
after looking a long time, i came to realize the tc stands for text confirmation, and as i am adding something new, i am guessing i need to make a new folder for it? thank you for any help! |

| No, I'm not going to laugh. I know how it's hard to install MODs for a non-geek user, and I'm working on making life easier.
