[QUOTE=Videx;2215467
It sounds like you uploaded the files to the wrong place. picall.php should be in your forum root - right next to poll.php.[/QUOTE]

thanks Videx......

can you tell me how to check...im sorry, but this is new to me.

You'll use FTP - the same way the files were uploaded. Your forum admin would be the person to talk to.

videx,

We are a new forum and mmmmm im one of the admins ( i may be out of my depth)...following the install instructions above it mentions that i should copy the upload folder into my forum folder......where is that forum folder?

like i mention , the button itself and all but the first two on the drop down work well, so i managed to get that far using my forum admincp

forgive my ignorance please,

No, that is NOT what it says to do. Hey, I can forgive your ignorance, but can your forum members? You don't have to be an IT expert to install and maintain a forum, but it's lots harder than running a Yahoo Group.

I'm guessing you used something like Fantastico to install vbulletin? Then, with the information I already gave you, you should be able to find your forum folder with FTP.

But you must read instructions carefully! And you must read the entire thread before installing any modification! Many mods don't work at all, some will screw your forum badly, and some have code released later that can really improve things.

Installation
1.Unzip the download package and copy the contents of the UPLOAD folder into your forum folder.

my forum members are all good people, they wont find me :)

Right, but that's not what you said above. If you simply copied the UPLOAD folder to your forum folder (alongside poll.php), it won't work because that's not what it says to do. You want to copy it's contents.

ah.......yes, apologies for that.

so, where do i copy the contents, i used the process 2, 3,4 and 5 to get the button on the navbar, but the two php files have not copied in, how would i do that,

where is this forum folder?

I've told you at least twice. I'm not sure how else I can say it. Have you found poll.php yet?

I usually just re-name the "upload" folder the same as my forum root directory after I have unzipped it. The default root folder here is named "forum" yours may be something else

you have a ways to go but many of us have had to learn our way around, installing mods might be something you should wait on, until you get the basics of hosting and FTP navigation down pac. When it comes to template edits your head may explode or you may bite someone in your vicinity while you try to concentrate on the details. :D

Installed great!!! Works Great!!!
