Thanks for the reply..
I just cant figure out how can i make this load this "config.php" file which loads all the information that this "news mod" does..
<?PHP include("/home/username/public_html/config.php"); ?>
it doesn't give any error messages, its kinda hard to tell what am i doing wrong.. something is not allowing it or it doesn't know how to read that file
it gives me an "[function.include]: failed to open" error if i point it to some file that does not exist tho
and another thing should i give this "news mod" a differend database username what forum uses? so i can set privileges since it only has to pick up news topics from forums
if so what privileges do i need to set?
