Follow up again ...

Since I am using vb4, I followed these instructions...

Quote:
If you are linking to a message board system,
// thse variables should be set to the database, user and password for that
// database.
Install completed and I ended up with an Admin Screen for the classifieds, but I see no integration with my vb4 site. I edited field for prefix that was BLANK, thinking it should contain the prefix I selected to use "cl_" and I received yet another error message:

We're sorry, but the system experienced an unrecoverable error. Please try again later.

Since the install program seems to re-write permissions for the "pp-classifieds" directory, I'm unable to FTP access to change the config files there any longer, after the install.

So, I redid the install and managed to get back into the Admin screen, however, I believe the Admin screen I'm looking at has nothing to do with vBulletin 4, which suggests that the config comments statement doesn't actually mean "linking to message board system" like vb4 as it would suggest.

Somehow, I have to get it to speak to vb4 ...

On a different note, when in the instructions, comments in files, or install screens, does the phrase vb3 actually mean vb3? In other words, it appears in a rush to get a vb4 version out, there seems to be some leftover content text that mentions vb3 instead of vb4. It is a little confusing. For example, step 4, do the drop down boxes for templates that say vb3, actually refer ONLY to vb3 and since I'm using vb4, should I ignore them completely?

Suggestions?

Regards,
Doug
