Hi, thanks for your reply, I have the downloads as where the instructions told me to put it, it is in the forums directory, meaning forums/downloads and the forums is in the main cms directory meaning www.dida.com/forums/downloads
so in the admin section of downloads, the url is ./downloads/ and the minute I click on teh navbar downloads in vb I get the download.php page but at the top it says downloads directory dosent exits, and if I try to upload well it just gives db errors pertaining to not finding the directory. I tryed to put an absolute url meaning /var/www etc etc to the downloads with no avail. this is very perplexing as I have a basically reasonable knowlege of linux, and php, but this one has me stumped....anything else for info would be appreciated. Thanks....twalls admin mobildesigns.com...
ps....hoping im not embarrasing myself hehehe but probably something stuipd...
