install question
 

When we CHMOD the arcade folders and it's subfolders, do we apply that to the individual files that are inside the arcade folder itself? The 8 files (asteroids thru snake). the instructions say to JUST CHMOD the arcade folder and it's subfolders.

The entire /arcade folder to your forum's root directory
The files in the /admincp folder to your forum's /admincp folder
The files in /includes/xml folder to your forum's /includes/xml folder
arcade.php and holdsession.php to your forum's root folder

Is there a difference between my forum's root directory and my forum's root folder?

if my path is home/houstonh/public_html/(all forum folders in here) then....?

Just CHMOD the folders..

Your forums root is where your forum.php file is..

well i deleted and then reinstalled everything. followed the directions to the T. Info is still telling me to add that code in since I'm running forum.php instead of index.php but otherwise the arcade does work at least.

Also, any word on how to fix this showing above the header bar? I see a lot of people have been encountering this.... "Warning: stristr() [function.stristr]: needle is not a string or an integer in [path]/arcade.php on line 5550"

Thanks for you help btw!
