i guess reading the instructions & release notes is out of the question then?

to quote from release_notes.txt in the XOOPS 2.0.15 package:

Quote:

Installing XOOPS
-----------------------------------

1. Copy the content of the htdocs/ folder where it can be accessed by your server
2. Ensure mainfile.php, cache, templates_c and uploads are writable by the webserver
3. Access the folder where you installed the htdocs/ files using your web browser to launch the installation wizard

Upgrading from a previous version
-----------------------------------

Upgrading from XOOPS 2.0.14

If you downloaded the 2.0.14-to-2.0.15 upgrade package:
- Just copy the content of the htdocs/ folder over your existing installation

If you downloaded the complete 2.0.15 package:
- Copy the content of the htdocs/ folder over your existing installation after having deleted
"mainfile.php" and the "install" folder it contains

Upgrading from any XOOPS ranging 2.0.7 to 2.0.13.2:
1. Copy the content of the htdocs/ folder except mainfile.php over your existing installation.
2. Delete the following folders and files from your server (they belong to an old version):
* class/smarty/core
* class/smarty/plugins/resource.db.php
3. Empty the templates_c folder (except index.html)
4. Upload the upgrade folder to your site
5. Ensure the server can write to mainfile.php
6. Login using an administrator account
7. Access <your.site.url>/upgrade/ using your browser, and follow the instructions
8. Write-protect mainfile.php again
9. Remove the upgrade folder after use

i just registered and logged in on your site without trouble.

also ask them to make sure their firewalls aren't blocking http header referrals, and that they have cookies enabled.

maybe they didn't actually complete the registration process by clicking submit on the white (confirmation) page that just lists the username, and email address etc. if they had got to the page that says an email has been sent with their activation key, then the username etc must have been submitted to the db, in which case you would see it.

on a side note. it's recommended to update to XOOPS 2.0.15 (it's a common recommendation, sorry.. but we don't say upgrade for no reason at all)

i get that problem everytime i try to view profiles or use the search on xoops.org when i'm logged in.

a few others experience the same problem, but we're in the minority. we don't understand why and believe me, we've looked for solutions as have the admins here on xoops.org, and we/they can't see anything wrong at all.

we've tried different computers etc, still problem is there.. i tried giving my login info to JD to try, as he can view profiles etc, but when he logged in with my account, he got the same. a blank page etc..

when i used the library computers, they returned a zero sized reply error.. so i'm stumped and just learnt to live with it.

you could try with a different user account, see if it works then.

either way if you spent some time on the forums and reading the news, you'll see that there are a few different editors available for xoops, and most available offer wysiwyg.

and i don't think good cms = good content adder.. lol

that's 1 criteria out of hundreds that make a good CMS.

and each CMS outthere has it's good sides, and it's faults, and things that can be improved on. tell me if you know of 1 that is perfect in every way and doesn't cost an arm & a leg :) i'll be more than happy to use it.

no don't think i called a function from the block itself.

why does your ISP not allow you to use the require (2nd option) i can't see any reason for them to disallow it, the whole XOOPS system works like that.

it should do, i've used include statements in custom blocks before..

try using an absolute path in the include, instead of a relative path.

make sure you tick the box that says php code or whatever.

and don't use the open/close tags <? ?>

also, get used to using long tag like <?php instead of short tag <? it's better practice, as sometimes short tags can be disabled in php.ini

eitherway tho, when pasting code into the blocks either select html or php but don't use the tags.. as XOOPS does it for you.

in register.php

you could add it no probs.. (i'm still unsure as to why you want to do this though)

find in register.php

$newuser->setVar('user_mailok',$user_mailoktrue);


add right after:

$ruta XOOPS_ROOT_PATH.'/'.$newuser->getVar('uname');
mkdir($ruta0700);


and that should i think, create a directory upon completion of registration.

i should add some error checking into that tho, to check if the folder exists 1st before trying to create it.
