Hello: I get a database error when logging in to www.efsaneclub.com.

The error is "The mysql extension is deprecated and will be removed in the future: use mysqli or PDO instead".

It looks like your host upgraded your PHP version. Go to /includes/config.php and change
$config['Database']['dbtype'] = 'mysql';
to
$config['Database']['dbtype'] = 'mysqli';

If that flag is set & you recompiled php, make sure you installed the php mysqlnd ext.

Based on the error, it should be located at /home/efsamcom/public_html/includes/config.php

Looks like you did not do it right because it's still reporting the exact same error.

I couldn't find the exact location, so please describe it exactly.

The exact location is /home/efsamcom/public_html/includes/config.php. If you have trouble finding it, you can ask your hosting company. We can't really guide you through the process without seeing what you see.
