I have a few questions that I couldn't really find the answer to earlier (sorry, but there are 37 pages

)
Questions:
- I ran the Installer and it ran fine, however it did not edit any of the files, even after it said it DID edit the files. The replacement files were all added to the /gas/ directory and such. Either way, I had to manually edit all the files to get them to work. Should I have CHMOD'ed all the files that were going to be changed?
- What is meant by "edit the PHRASES" stuff? Use PHPMyAdmin to just find the table and edit them there? I ended up just running that part of the Install file again and it started working.
- Is there a vBAdvanced Module for this that enables the articles to appear in the News on the front page, using the look they have when they appear in the forum table?
I appreciate anybody taking the time to answer these questions and I greatly appreciate the Author making this in the first place, as this is a great tool for sites.
