hey i just got my forum up and running. i was given a patch by the nice people at arch linux to change my theme to resemble theres. it is a .diff file, how do i apply this patch?
secondly is there a mod avalible to let you select moderators for specific forums?
thanks
If you're on a *nix system, you apply the diff with the patch command.
To select which forums a mod moderates, go into their profile and click on the administration link.
how do i get to terminal or issue a command, i am on cpanel
Patch the files locally and upload the new versions to the server. Not sure if there is a terminal interface in Cpanel. (Never used those admin UI things personally).
how do i patch it locally? i seriusly have no idea what a patch is or how to apply it? the file is called Arch_template.diff and i also have Easy_BBCode_1.0.1.diff antispam.diff and general.diff
thanks alot

Are you on nix or windows? (your local comp, not the server).
how do i get to terminal or issue a command, i am on cpanel
By default cpanel does not give you shell access, you would need to have your host manually enable it, which most will not do.
im on windows vista atm is there any other way?
Just do a search on Google for Windoze diff/patch utilities. Never used any, so not sure how many there are, but there should be plenty.
winmerge is a pretty good one
ok i got winmerge how do i patch the files? i dont even know what the other file im supposed to patch is
