phpBB • Free and Open Source Forum Software

I think I've uploaded the folders and file to the right place in my phpbb installation. I ran the install page. It didn't seem to give me any progress indication, but eventually I got to the ACP login page. I logged in and purged the cache. But when I go to the Users and Groups tab, there is no sign of any Add User button.

What may have gone wrong?

How can I check that it installed properly? Should I be able to see any new tables or fields in the database? Should I be able to see any new files or changed files in the phpbb installation?

Thanks - Rowan

Check permissions, it might be that.

This is how your ftp client should look(Unzipped MOD on the left) : http://s20.postimg.org/9lrqz5px9/upload_MOD.png

It should look like this: http://s20.postimg.org/71rirbczh/run_installer.png
and after clicking Submit: http://s20.postimg.org/is5g8p5rx/run_installer2.png

The new files should be there - you just uploaded them
Any file edits will need to be done manually (there's none with this MOD) you do this by unzipping the MOD and opening the install.xml file in a browser.

Easiest way though is to install Automod and let that install MODs for you.

Hi Jessica

I have installed the MOD using AutoMOD and I have removed the install.php file and purged the cache.

The Add Users menu item should appear in the Users and Groups tab under Users but is not there.

I am the Founder. What permissions do I need to change? Or what else have I (possibly) not done?

Thanks

It's an Administrative permission..."Can create new user accounts" under User & Groups tab.
