I can say that your phrases are not really clear and without more details or a link there is little we can do to help you

that's because I already ran it. Try to access the plugin in the management interface

you're welcome. Don't forget to remove install.php and install_mod.php when you have run them ...

you have to run install_mod.php in HTTP not FTP: http://galacticempire.se/forum/install_mod.php I can the the button, I have even been able to run the script so it should work now.

yes but it is your host that activate mySQL for your account

have a look here

it is not possible as standardand even if you modify the files to disable acceess to the admin group, you will still be able to have access to the posts via the database using phpMyAdmin

Hve a look on PunRes, there have been updates for this mod

There is a chatbox for PunBB, check on PunRes.
PunBB files only use a few hundred kilos on the disk, it is the database that uses more space, it grows with the number of posts.
PunBB runs on a webserver, not on your computer unless you use your computer as a webserver.

what about using a website downloader ? there is this one for example : http://www.geocities.com/siliconvalley/ … wnload.htm

What you ar looking for is logs not reports. The report table list the posts that members want to report to the admins because they do not comply to the forum policies/rules They are added when clicking on the report link, next to quote at the bottom of each post

search for accounts with num_posts=0 in the users table then select the ones you want to delete in the results and click on delete at the bottom of the page

I use phpMyAdmin

it is in the first lines of the CCS file : FONT-FAMILY: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif

could not <meta http-equiv="pragma" content="no-cache"> tell the proxy not to cache the page ?

the problem is not facebook securing its widget but the possibility to add a a fake widget to your site. You would have to check that the code added by users is a genuine facebook widget code for example. You would have to check the validity and integrity of each code added by the users. But to do so you have to know the code structure of each widget that your users may add.

The security issue is that instead of adding a widget any user can add a javascript orany other executable script on which content you do not have any control. Therefore, it would be very easy to add a script to exploit potential security holes of your host

verify that the avatar folder rights are set to 777

chmod is a unix command to change the rights on files and folders
You can modify the rights with your ftp client by right clicking on the folders then choose properties. 777 allows every one to read, write and execute files in the folder

It is not a standard feature. If guests are not allowed to read topics there is no reason to display them.
