Re: help needed from web page expert

Soz late in replying here but the easiest way would have been just to delete the index.html file as this is prob set to load before the index.php

unfortunatly not, the index.php was meant to stay where it was in the sub-directory.. deleting the index.html without having customised .htaccess would have left no default document at all because apache only searches for index.html, index.htm, home.html and welcome.html by default... anything else would have to be explicitly referenced in .htaccess

at least it's sorted now anyway ;) :cool:

Re: help needed from web page expert

Could you please research a little before you start posting the ipdynamiclte index.php is meant to go in the root dir of the website and not the sub directory as you suggest also it is the httpd.conf that decides which files to load first and not the .htaccess and i know for a fact that index.php has been set to load on that server he is on
As a person who has installed quite a few forums for various people i do know this to be true.

Further confirmation of this is found in the install isntructions for this particular bit of coding.....

Code:

 

Invision Power Dynamic Lite

---------------------------



Installation Snyopsis

.....................



Open up index.php, edit the variables at the top save and upload to your root public_html / www folder.





INSTALLATION

------------



This guide assumes that you have installed IPB in /forums/ and wish for the portal to be the first page your visitors see.



Open up index.php and edit the path to where the forums directory is:



define( 'ROOT_PATH', "./forums" );



This is set to "forums" by default. If you had your IPB installed at http://www.domain.com/chat/ you'd need to make sure you have:



define( 'ROOT_PATH', "./chat" );



Save the file and upload it to your root web directory folder, often called "public_html" or "www".



UPLOADING IPB COMPONENTS

------------------------



If you've already got a version previous to RC2 set up, you should make sure you upload the following files found in the "upload" folder

of this zip file.



/skin/s1/skin_csite.php

/lang/en/lang_csite.php

/sources/ipdynamiclite/*.*



SETTING UP

----------



Before you can use Dynamic lite, you'll need to make sure you've switched it on from the ACP. If you don't do this, you may

receive PHP errors from index.php.



Simply log into your forums ACP and expand the "System Settings" sub-menu and click on "IPDynamic Lite Set-up".



That's it, you're all done!

Re: help needed from web page expert

*sigh* flaming is such fun..

i wasn't here to discuss the "correct" way to install dynamic-lite.. you're probably right on that part.
he had installed it into a sub-folder.. so i just did what was nesseccary to get it working.

can't you just let it go?

Re: help needed from web page expert

S1lv3r Kingp is my host provider btw ;)
Also web junkie is a associate.

You sorted it in the end anyway.

@kingp was just messing about and posted here s1lv3r kindly helped out and now its working the way I wanted anyway. But i'm sure there are many web site related issues we wil go through. Site starting off quite nice, getting 10 or so FS customers through it per night and they are starting to register so hopefully it will blossom.

I thought about it a few mins ago, if you had come to me directly you would only have the brain power of 1 person (Maybe 0.5 of a person :p) but by posting here youve got a whole membership that could possibly help ya....

Thanks for bailing in S1lv3r :drunk:

Re: help needed from web page expert

thanks KingP,

i must admit this has to be one of the friendliest forums i've been in.. and not too many spam-freaks either.

thanks again to all those who've welcomed me.. it's the sort of reception that makes people want to get involved and help out.

Re: help needed from web page expert

Hi back again :erm:

This time trying to change the ipdynamic lite portal page

using this code

PHP Code:


		
			
<body style="margin-left: 10px; margin-right: 10px; margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px">

<table border="0" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0" width="100%">

  <tr>

    <td valign="top" align="left" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">

<table border="0" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="0" width="100%" align="center">

  <tr>

    <td align="left" valign="center"><a href="{ibf.script_url}act=idx"><img src="{ibf.vars.img_url}/logo2.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a></td>



    <td align="right" valign="bottom">&nbsp;&nbsp;

    <!--IBF.RULES-->

    <a href="{ibf.script_url}act=UserCP&amp;CODE=00" title="{ibf.lang.cp_tool_tip}"><{USERCP}></a>&nbsp;

    <a href="{ibf.script_url}act=Reg&amp;CODE=00"><{REGISTER}></a>&nbsp;

    <a href="{ibf.script_url}act=calendar"><{CALENDAR}></a>&nbsp;

    <a href="{ibf.script_url}act=Members"><{MEMBERS}></a>&nbsp;

    <a href="{ibf.script_url}act=Help"><{HELP}></a>&nbsp;

    <a href="{ibf.script_url}act=Search&amp;f={$ibforums->input['f']}"><{SEARCH}></a>&nbsp;

    <!--IBF.CHATLINK-->

    <a href="{ibf.vars.home_url}"><{HOME}></a>

    </td>

  </tr>

</table><br />

Gives me this a Normal view of my site. (as per sig)

what I want is this image
http://www.marks-stuff.co.uk/forum/s...disclaimer.gif
