How can I change all font colors & style without going through every section in css?  hmm

Ummm, I think the only thing I installed is CAPTCHA for sign ups.

OOoo, thanks. Getting closer. In debug mode it says:

File: /home/jforcega/public_html/forums/viewtopic.php
Line: 186

PunBB reported: Unable to fetch post info

Database reported: Unknown column 'u.use_avatar' in 'field list' (Errno: 1054)

When I take out 'u.use_avatar' everything works fine, I can see all threads. Except when I click on a username it brings:

File: /home/jforcega/public_html/forums/profile.php
Line: 897

PunBB reported: Unable to fetch user info

Database reported: Unknown column 'u.use_avatar' in 'field list' (Errno: 1054)

So I took out u.use_avatar again, but then it says the same thing except this time it's u.save_pass.

I'm gonna stop here and see if you know the solution to this.

Anyone? I uploaded the 1.2 forums again, you can see them here: http://jforcegames.com/forums/

As you can see, clicking on a thread will bring you to the error page, and so will creating a new account.

Also, I digged into the database a bit deeper, and I can see all the individual posts, so I know they're not gone. It seems like there should be an easy fix to this, so I would much rather do that than start the forum over.

Somehow, somebody hacked into our site and deleted the public html folder. My whole site was gone, but then I found there was a backup in the tmp folder (an updated one instead of my old backup on my harddrive). I uploaded that and got the site back, but I had to delete this ludur.php file in the forums/lang directory, because my FTP client wouldn't upload that file. Good thing too, because it was a virus file with a bit of code that's related to this phpbb virus that's on our site, which I believe is unrelated to this problem, but I should mention it anyway. So, the site came back fine, except for the forums, they came back without my background image. All the user & post data was still there, just no background image. I decided to upgrade the forums (I was running 1.2.17) and then figure out how to get the background back on there.

So I tried following the migration instructions. I didn't make a database backup because I didn't know how to and it looked really confusing, and I figured that's just to be safe and not necessary. I got the new forums up, but of course they had the default style instead of my customized style. Now, this is the only part I don't completely remember: after that, I think I just deleted the whole forum directory because I didn't want to customize it again, and I just uploaded the old 1.2 forums back. But after I did this I noticed when I clicked on a thread or a username, it goes to a white screen and says "error: unable to fetch post info." It still listed all the threads, but there was no data behind them. So I then uploaded the 1.3 forums again, and it says: "Your PunBB database is out-of-date and must be upgraded in order to continue. Please run db_update.php in order to complete the upgrade process." I click the db_update.php, and then it says "Your database is already as up-to-date as this script can make it."

Also, when I login to Cpanel and go to the Msqyl databases, I can still see the forum database there. It doesn't look like it's gone, but I don't know.

What should I do?

Oh alright. I should have known that. Thanks.

The directions say:

#---------[ 1. UPLOAD ]---------------------------------------------------
#

font.png => PUN_ROOT/font.png
antibot.php => PUN_ROOT/lang/LANGUAGE/antibot.php (Where LANGUAGE is the appropriate folder e.g. ENGLISH)



I don't know what to do. Please help.

Just wanted to say that I'm very glad I discovered punbb. It was so easy to integrate with the site (much easier than phpbb). And I felt very lucky when I saw that one of the default styles (Cobalt) matched our site's color theme.
