Nup, I get the same error... I haven't created a database for it though, how do I do that for your forum? (it would be nice if it came with a readme...)

You should be able to create a MySQL database from PhpMyAdmin if you have it... I kinda forgot to assume some people might not have that installed Wink Well anyways for the database name, use an existing database name, just make sure the prefix is unique and you're set Wink

By the way, a readme.txt is unneccessary for this forum since there's 3 steps... CHMOD functions.php to 666 (which setup.php tells you), fill out the form, and then delete setup.php (which index.php tells you).

Aah, I got it now. I visited index.php instead of setup.php.

It looks good! But the table prefix by default should probably be sephforum5_, not sephforum1 Wink

And do you think you could get it to auto detect the site url and url to the forum? That could be done using $_SERVER and educated guesses Wink

I could get it to get the Forum location, but not the website location. I'll do that now Smile

Anyhow... I have it as SephForum1 because what if you want 2 or 3 sephforums?

Website location is possible, I just can't remember which $_SERVER thing it is... maybe you could do a regular expression on it?

Well the reason I said it's not possible is because what if there's someone like me where my website is http://sys.blissdev.com/seph/ but my forum is http://forum.blissdev.com/ . Now the setup script is at http://sys.blissdev.com/seph/setup.php so it can't figure out anything about the website location since they are completely unrelated. See?

But I *did* get it to add the forum location automatically. Pretty much the same way it gets the absolute(?) path.

Yes Zack, you're the first non-me user of the SephForum 5 Wink
