    It comes with the installation manual(below), seems pretty straight forward but for some reason the site wont' show up. My hosting is with Hostmonster and Ive uploaded everything to /public_html

    The first step:
    1. Open /include/config.php
    
    Find:
     /home/username/public_html
    
    Replace with the path to your public web directory.
    Code (markup):
    Ive replaced it with /public_html

    Any help would be appreciated. Tia



    Heres the complete instructions:
    1. Open /include/config.php
    
    Find:
     /home/username/public_html
    
    Replace with the path to your public web directory.
    
    Find:
    http://www.example.com
    
    Replace with your domain name where you are going to install the script.
    
    
    Find:
    localhost
    
    Replace with your SQL host.
    
    
    Find:
    database_username
    
    Replace with your database username.
    
    
    Find:
    database_password
    
    Replace with your database password.
    
    Find:
    database_name
    
    Replace with your database name.
    
    2. Import database.sql into your newly created database for the script.
    
    3. Upload all files in the public folder to your web server's public directory.
    
    4. CHMOD 777 the following files and directories:
    
    
    /images/membersprofilepic/
    /images/membersprofilepic/o/
    /images/membersprofilepic/thumbs/
    /pdata/
    /pdata/t/
    /temporary/
    
    Code (markup):

    If you still need help and can provide a temporary login for me I can do it providing your hosting account allows changing permissions and access to your database.

    For step one, you need to put the entire path, /public_html is different then /home/username/public_html
