the query that you ran has some problems... that's why it doesn't show.. just go to your phpmyadmin and fix it there...

Thanks. For some reason my settings columns are not in the same order and hence had to manually change the values. But its working now. Thanks again.

Ran into the following errors when editing the postbit_legacy template.after i click "save",this comes out
************************************************** ********
The following error occurred when attempting to evaluate this template:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in /home/myforum/public_html/includes/adminfunctions_template.php(3096) : eval()'d code on line 201

This is likely caused by a malformed conditional statement. It is highly recommended that you fix this error before continuing, but you may continue as-is if you wish.

************************************************** ********

So,i did a check on the "/includes/adminfunctions_template.php",this is what is put in the file

This is on line 3096

eval('$devnull = "' . $template . '";');

This is on line 201

UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "style

After i ignore,and go ahead and save this template,i tried to upload a attachment.All i see is the words in red "Need 5 credits to download" .Did not see user's own credits,posts to dates and others.however,i still can view my own attachment.
Can someone who have successfully uploaded this hack,or anyone with this problem before or just about anyone,can help me solve this problem please?
