PHP Code:

Error
 
 SQL-query :  
 
 INSERT INTO `setting` ( `varname` , `grouptitle` , `value` , `defaultvalue` , `optioncode` , `displayorder` , `advanced` , `volatile` ) 
 VALUES (
 
 'regpmactive', 'register', '1', '1', '', 139, 0, 0
 ) 
 
 MySQL said: 
 
 
 Table 'database_name.setting' doesn't exist 


it is because you have a prefix on your tables in your database.

To fix this problem, go back into the instructions and everwhere it says:
INSERT INTO `setting`
and
INSERT INTO phrase

make sure you add the prefix for your tables:

Example: My tables have vb3_ as the prefix so I added it to look like the following:
INSERT INTO `vb3_setting`
and
INSERT INTO vb3_phrase


Hope this helps

yeah, I just copy the original one over.

anyway, there's a fun way to do this:turn on debug mod, and add directly from ACP/vB Options but ... you have to know what you are doing, or you will distroy your board.
