I am new at his so maybe I don't understand how this forum works, but it seems to me that I should be able to make several forums or categories.
The problem I am having is this:
I made several categories, so I thought people could post to each category, but the snit forums testing page shows up in all of them and all the postings for all categories.
Can I have more than one forum and if so how do I do it?
How do I get rid of this testing page?

Newbe,
It takes a bit to figure out the terminology but it will come to you. Read, read, read, (oh, and did I say read?:)) in your own forum "admin options" area, as well as here, in this forum.
And if someone has a site listed, go, take a look at it, so you get a sense of what it can look like. I am always amazed at how everyone approaches from a different angle. It's great to see/experience!
With all of that said, are you referring to the Snitz Forum "structure?" Because, as I said, the "terminology" used might throw you off (but looking at other forums besides Snitz, it seems to be fairly standard). Anyway....
* You create the "Category/ies" (sounds as if you already did this)
* Within each Category you create "Forum/s." (look for the purple folder, off to the right of your category, on the default page)
* Within each "Forum," Members post Topics.
Keep us posted with your progress.

Thanks, your information really helped. I can't believe I overlooked that folder. I must have been tired. You can check it out and see if I did it right. http://www.theperfectsystem.net
I am trying to get this site up and functional in a hurry before my book actually goes to print so I can be sure it is working and I have had nothing but problems with the two ASP Software's that I purchased.
The first one from ASP-Programmers is full of bugs and its been three weeks and they still haven't fixed it, so I order another one from ASP Generator and thought I would try to do it myself and the file is corrupt, so waiting to hear from them. I have been able to do all the ASP projects thus far except the secured pages and the lost password and this seems to be a bit complicated and I am just not experienced enough to do it, but I may have to take the time to learn since I can't seem to find anyone that I can trust to do it for me.
At least the Forum is working, Yeah!
I do have a question. On this original database that loads with the files, how many members will it hold? If it doesn't hold enough can I put it on a bigger database? Do you have a link to this information?
Thanks again for your help. |

This is the most recent discussion concerning databases...
Access has a size limit of 2GB per table, so I wouldn't worry about filling it up as much as I would worry about the number of people visiting at a given time.
As mentioned in the above post, if you hava a low-traffic site, Access is fine, though SQL Server or MySQL would be better.
If you do a quick search, you can find all sorts of discussions (and opinions) on Access and its merits (or lack of, depending on who you ask). |

I'm not really sure how this whole support thing works but I just hope someone can answer my question.
Basically, I'm losing questions/comments that have been posted to my forum. For example, last night (1/16/08) I posted a new question and was unable to locate that question the following day (1/17/08). In fact, I've lost every question which had been posted since 1/6/08. I'm using Snitz 2000
Also, is there a phone number to reach someone at Snitz? |
