My website now points to a blank page with an error stating Fatal: ./cache/ is NOT writable. I contacted my hosting, and they are telling me things Im not sure what they mean and where do I find their instructions so I can repair. Heres what one guy responded with: We did an investigation and discov...

What does changing the packet size do exactly, how does that work? I changed it to 8 and still can't send out the mass emails but sending mass PM's works now.

Thanks, but where do I change the package size at exactly?

I have about 4000 registered users and I have the latest version of phpbb. My hosting won't let me send mass emails/PM's to my members because of some "500 per hour limit". They say I would need to break up my list of members and make different groups to be able to send out my mass message...

Thanks, everyone.

Quick question; After I increase members rights to accept unlimited private messages, does that mean they will get an email notification all at once telling them of all the private messages they missed while their box was full? Basically, will the mailbox burst at the seams and start to declare they...

I got hit with a malware virus, and now that my hosting has removed it and cleaned it out, Google still blocks the site to my users by displaying a "this site has malware" warning even though the malware has been removed. Im being told that until google reindexes and crawls my site which c...

researching watcher, your post helped and worked for me, thanks.

Lumpy, tried following your instructors but there were already [Youtube] installed, thats what i said in my post is that the You Tube brackets only work with the "long link" option which is gone now from the new Youtube site layout.

The YouTube code [Youtube][/Youtube] stopped working while ago whether I put in the address bar url or the shortened share url below the video, so the work around I found was when you hit share below the video and options, there was a "long link" url which worked perfectly to post on my fo...

I was wondering how I can edit the wording when people register for an account in the terms and conditions (which file do I edit?). Actually I just want to add a line stating something to effect of "By registering for this account, you agree to occasionally receive PM's and emails notifying you...

Thanks for the reply. The thing is that I send a mass PM already and do announcements, but by also email blasting I cover more ground to make everyone gets the message. Can you recommend another Hosting aside from Hostgator and Godaddy who wouldn't give me any problems sending mass emails? Thanks!

My host says that I can't send out a mass email via the ACP because they have a limit of 500 per hour, and they say they want me to find someone to write a script (phpmylist?) to bypass the issue and allow for 500 emails per hour. Here is the email they sent me, I was hoping someone here knew a solu...

Im looking for the answer for this as well. I want it to appear all over the forum wherever its allowed to appear. I hate when threads are created like this with no final answers, pppffft.

Not sure why recently, but when ppl try to post youtube videos using the [youtube][/youtube] tags, the video won't show up. I checked the ACP and looks like everything is enabled.

Im running the most recent version of phpbb.

Anyone have any guesses?
