justforyou

Thanks rainbow. I will do that.
I really appreciate your help.

Thanks again rainbow. Ok, I will wait then :(.

Thanks Charles. I will put the ticket then.
My forum's domain name and login details for the cpanel will be enough?
In the first mail that I got from IPBoard after purchasing, i got the following:

URL where IP.Board will be installed or is already installed:

FTP address:
FTP username:
FTP password:

Install Folder:
Desired admin username:
Desired admin password:

MySQL host (this is usually local host):
MySQL username:
MySQL password:
MySQL database name:

other than my domain name and login details about the cpanel, I have no idea about the above. :(

Thanks again.
I am afraid to do it myself, as I have never done anything like this before. But at the same time I dont want to wait till monday. I was hoping to get my forum started by tomorrow. :(

In case i muster enough courage to do it myself, can you please tell me what are the steps for doing the installation?
If I mess up something will the IPB staff correct it later?

Thanks both of you :).

i really dont know much about giving access to ftp, ssh etc... all I have now is my domain name and the username and password to login to my cpanel.
So while putting the ticket if I give these 2 info, will that be enough?

Thanks again.

oops, then when will be it done?

Do I need to first create the "forum" folder in my host? Or Ipb will take care of that once I give the complete path of my forum?

Thanks for your help Rainbow.

Send in a ticket from the client area.

It will ask you for your license URL before it allows you to submit tickets, that's just asking you where the board is installed (or in your case, where it will be installed) so that our technciains can locate your site when you send in a ticket :)

hi i m the same person smt3, just logged in with my client account.
Thanks for your reply.
You mean to say I put my domain name right? like "mydomain.net".
Actually I want the forum to be located at "mydomain.net/forum" and i want "mydomain.net" like a homepage from where i have a link to my forum.
If I put the ticket now, will the setup be done today?

Thanks again.
