I swear....I follow the instructions to a "T".....but alot of these MOD's won't work.....so here I am.

Ok.....I did just what this guys said for the FAQ MOD:

From the .txt file.
______________________________

Download and extract to your forum folder,
open mod_dbsetup.asp in your web browser and choose 'Faq Modification'
from the drop down menu and click 'update'.
Then add a link to admin_faq.asp from admin_home.asp and your set to go!

______________________________

Sounded easy......but:

1) the MOD never showed up in the mod_dbsetup.asp so I couldn't "update"

2) I have an error message now on my FAQ page.....

Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80040e37'

The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot find the input table or query 'FORUM_FAQ'. Make sure it exists and that its name is spelled correctly.

/forum/faq.asp, line 92

_________________________________

Nothing was said in the .txt file about adding any tables to my database.....and I've never done it yet.....so not sure what to do....


ok.....thanks for help!

Try using the MOD Setup link in your Admin Options instead of mod_dbsetup.asp

That's what I am talking about when I said (was refering to the page):

"the MOD never showed up in the mod_dbsetup.asp so I couldn't "update"

clicking the MOD setup link or entering the URL didn't make a difference.......

you might try changing the faq.dbs filename to dbs_faq.asp

It sounds to me like you didn't read the instuctions correctly.

It told you to load mod_dbsetup.asp but you used Mod setup from the admin, which uses the newer admin_mod_dbsetup.asp which requires a different filename format.
