P.S.S

I went into mySQL and deleted the username Bryce from the database, hoping that maybe there was an error in registering the first member.  I went back and created a new membership, it allowed for the registration to be completed and said it had sent me a Registration Confirmation email.

When received, I clicked the Activation Link and it opened up a page that said "There is no such account in our database or the account has already been activated."  Then decided to try and login with the username and password, in which case it then said "You're unauthorized to view this area." and refreshed the main page of the Joomla site.

Figured I'd add that into my process, perhaps it will help someone more in helping me!  Thank you!

P.S.  I also forgot to include that even though it says it's a "Duplicate Entry", logging in using that name and password says "I am UNAUTHORIZED to view this area."  Which leaves me to believe maybe I have a configuration setting incorrect, so I went to my Admin (which I can sign into) but the configuration seems to be all correct.

Any suggestions?

Hello,

I've been working hard on my website the last couple of days but haven't yet told others about it so they could register.  Today I downloaded a module called SMF_Whos_Online_1.4 and installed it into my website, taking away the regular register/login module.  Oh, I also downloaded the SMF_Login_1.4 I think it is... Both available from Joomlahacks.com.

Anyways, I get this error everytime I try to register, but unfortunately I cannot copy and paste it, so I've uploaded it to my website and will insert it into this post...


Is this because of the module I downloaded or is there something wrong that I've missed while installing Joomla?  It's a recent installment that I've been playing around with over the last past week and a half.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Sincerely,
Bryce.

Thanks a lot!  Solved the problem!

Hello,

I just downloaded the SMF Optional Login Module 1.3 for my Joomla website, which I must admit seems to be an awesome and very flexible module for Logging into the website.  However, I cannot seem to figure out where I can change the "Register" text to another word, as well I want to change "Welcome Guest" to something else.

I searched these in the files I downloaded to find these words but it doesn't find them, I searched them by eye-sight and found nothing in there.  Figured maybe it might be in the Languages folder for the overall core Joomla files, so I looked but once again without any luck.

Is there something I'm not doing right here?  Looking in the wrong area?  Any help would be appreciated.

Sincerely,
Bryce.

Kai,

Thanks again for your reply.

I've tried using the File Manager in my Cpanel to identify what would be the correct full path, which is what I put into the Configuration area of SMF.  Nothing happened!  I also checked out the stand alone version of SMF and it works perfectly, I just can't seem to get the absolute path to work.

I've contacted my hosting services, so hopefully they'll be able to help me out a little more.

Again, thanks a lot for your kindness in helping.

Sincerely,
Bryce

Hello,

Not sure what you mean by DirectAdmin access.  I've access to my Cpanel if that's what you mean, this is a domain website, not a subdomain FREE website or anything.  Not sure if that answers your question or not.

I appreciate the response!

Sincerely,
Bryce

Hello,

I'm sure this question has been asked a dozen times, if not more, but I've searched the forum and found numerous related questions, but majority of these treads I have found have not yet been responded with help to their questions.  Figured I'd make another attempt and see if someone might be able to assist me.

I've installed SMF and I've installed the Component, and now I'm trying to Configure the Component, but without much success.

Every time I type in the Absolute Location Path, it says it's not correct.  Although when I go into my FTP and double check it, it's right.  /public_html/tribes/forum should be what it is but doesn't work.

I've tried home/mysite/public_html/tribes/forum and many different variations but everytime without success.

What exactly am I doing wrong that the Path is incorrect every time I attempt to do it right?  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Sincerely,
Bryce
