If your install module points members to INDEX.PHP where they see all files and folders...read

OKIE...THANKS ALL FOR THE HELP...I phone my server provider and they assisted...so I am posting this for any others who run into same problem and use cpanel on their host site...

For the most part, all modules we have reviewed and tried to use on XOOPS are written in php...thus...

When a member clicks on that module link they go directly to your index.php file and see all the folders, contents in that module...AND WE KNOW WE DO NOT WANT THAT...we want them to go directly to the ready to use main page of modules...

So...

On cpanel...

1. Sign in to your cpanel on your host provider
2. Find the FILE MANAGER and open
3. Locate the public_html folder and click folder tab
4. After the public_html folder is open, click the name tab to right of folder (important...do NOT click on the folder icon, BUT the name next to the folder)
5. You will see the file .htaccess (click on the folder and open and EDIT file...

If you see only the below on the edit

DirectoryIndex index.html

Then you MUST add directly under that line the following

DirectoryIndex index.php


DO NOT REMOVE THE directoryindes index.php line you see, SIMPLY add the line above UNDER it and then SAVE...

This should stop the problem we have tried to describe and all future modules will be ready to go...

Good luck and thanks to all of you who assisted or answered my forums...you pointed me to the right direction..."phone my server provider"...so together we all help each other

THAT IS WHY I LOVE XOOPS!!
