What is an SQL QUERY?

[mbracing]

I am trying to install this away message program, and the first step, it says...

================================================== ========
RUN THE FOLLOWING SQL QUERY
================================================== ========
ALTER TABLE `user` ADD `awaystatus` INT( 1 ) UNSIGNED DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL ,
ADD `awaymessage` VARCHAR( 200 ) NOT NULL ,
ADD `awaysince` INT( 10 ) UNSIGNED DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL

================================================== ========

What is that?

A SQL Query

[sql]ALTER TABLE `user` ADD `awaystatus` INT( 1 ) UNSIGNED DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL ,
ADD `awaymessage` VARCHAR( 200 ) NOT NULL ,
ADD `awaysince` INT( 10 ) UNSIGNED DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL [/sql]

your forum is based on sql tables .. you need to run a query to update / change / add to the table structure in order to make a hack work sometimes.

You can either do this in your admincp >> Maintenance >> Execute sql query or run it in phpmyadmin.
