1) Upload all files and folders for the MOD into the admin/mods/ folder.
2) All MODs should have their own folder and the folder name must not contain any spaces.
3) Visit the forum where the MOD(s) are to be installed, log in as an Administrator, and enter the Administration Panel.
4) Click on "Install MODs" under the "MOD Center" header in the left-hand-side panel.
5) Enter the password for EasyMOD that you first set at installation (or on the "EasyMOD Settings" page).
6) Find the MOD in the list of MODs and click the "Process" button to the right of it.
7) Confirm that EasyMOD has detected and correctly interpreted all steps in the MOD and then click the "Next Step" button.
8 ) Realize that EasyMOD does not currently execute any SQL and then click the "Complete Installation" button.
9) Check to make sure that the MOD installed correctly.
TROUBLESHOOTING
• I get a "INVALID PASSWORD SUPPLIED" error when trying to enter the install page.
You have entered a password other than the one set for entrance to EasyMOD or you have not entered a password at all. Try entering a different password.
• I get an "All MODs have been processed" message instead of a list of MODs on the "Install MODs" page.
Either there are no MODs in the admin/mods/ folder that have not been processed or one or more MODs have incorrect headers. Make sure the headers look like one of the following:Code: Select all
## MOD Title: name_of_MOD ## MOD Author: phpBB.com_nick < e-mail_address > (Real Name) ## MOD Description: description_of_MOD ## MOD Version: x.x.x
• I get a "Critical Error" message on the first page of installing a MOD.Code: Select all
## MOD Title: name_of_MOD ## MOD Author: phpBB.com_nick < e-mail_address > (Real Name) http://MOD.author's.website/ ## MOD Description: description_of_MOD ## MOD Version: x.x.x
Usually critical errors occur when FINDs or COPYs cannot be completed. Make sure the code being looked for exists in the file it is being looked for in or that the file to be copied exists in the folder that it is said to be in.
• I get a "Warning" message on the first page of installing a MOD.
This is just informing you that EasyMOD cannot find the specified lines of code in languages other than English or styles other than subSilver. You can then choose to continue with or halt installation of that MOD.
• I get SQL Disabled messages on the second page of installation.
This is normal for alpha versions of EasyMOD. This is just to make you aware that you have to execute all SQL queries by hand.
• I get COPY errors on the third page of installation.
There may be spaces in the name of the folder that contains the MOD. This will confuse EasyMOD. Eliminate any spaces in the foldername and try installing again. If there aren't any spaces, please report your error here.
• The MOD does not operate as planned.
EasyMOD is not made to determine whether the MOD will do what you want. Just continue looking for the MOD that you want. Do NOT post here about it.
• There are errors in pages outside of the EasyMOD pages in the Admin Panel (i.e. Parse errors, unexpected characters, etc.).
This is probably not an error on EasyMOD's part. Please contact the MOD Author in whichever way he/she prefers. If the MOD normally functions correctly with the version you tried to install, please report your error here.
