    I think it’s dead, otherwise the author would have a heartbeat.

    Ooo… I like that “coupon code” idea. That is excellent.

    Thank you.
    Now I just need to get the site up to the point where we can use your product.
    Crossing my fingers!

    Hello again,
    Just want to make sure I get the correct path installed correctly, so want to verify a couple paths.

    You wrote:
    3) Create new folder in the WordPress root called forum
    4) Extract phpbb 3.0.12 to the forum folder you just made.

    Fine.
    My domain (https://www.mydomain.com) is located on the ftp server at:
    /home/mydomaincom/public_html

    My WordPress installation notes say:
    A new WordPress 4.1.1 installation has been completed. Details of the installation are shown below:
    Path : /home/mydomaincom/public_html

    So I believe the new “forum” folder would be located at:
    /home/mydomaincom/public_html/forum

    When I look at the “phpBB-3.0.12.zip” file, it’s got a folder in it called:
    phpBB3

    Inside that phpBB3 folder are 28 items, including 11 folders and 17 files.

    Do these 28 items go into “forum” or does “phpBB3” with its 28 items go into “forum“?

    Thank you in advance.
    I will take this one step at a time and get this answered first before going further. Hopefully my questions are clear. If I am not making sense, please ask away.
    Thanks again.
    And yeah.. the bicycling has been good, except this week has been full of excuses. Tonight? No excuse. Am going! ??

    Thank YOU very much!
    I will give this a shot.
    Wow… appreciate your effort. Let me mess with this tonight. AFTER a bike ride to calm down, feel smooth and ready to tackle it.

    Wow.
    The site integration is exactly what I was looking for, hoping for, but obviously I made some mistakes as it does not work for me.

    Are there any other hints you can give?
    Protocols to follow?
    Tricks to be aware of?

    For example… should WP-United be the absolute first thing to set up, then add other mods after setting this up?

    I remember there were some issues/questions in setting up phpBB, but now I cannot remember exactly what they were about. I know there were times I had a path question… where something needed to go, because the path noted was not the same as my path structure.

    Another question has to do with using Automod… or something like that. There were some automatic options and there is no way to tell if those are good choises or if one should stay away from them.

    That is frustrating. I mean… I have a basic understanding of what’s going on and that means I *do* know how important permissions and paths are.

    So when things go wrong, where do I turn?
    I was absolutely convinced to give up on WP-United, but your success gives me a little hope.

    If there is any way you can find the kindness to answer a few questions!

    THANK YOU!
