  1. It saddens me to let everyone know that TCH-Don passed away peacefully in his sleep last night. As many of you know Don had been battling cancer for quite some time. He is now at peace. All of us at TCH will miss Don very much as he was a great help to many of us and a dear friend. Our prayers go out to Don's wife and family. Don Rosenquist (TCH-Don) May 22, 1944 - Nov 24, 2007
  2. As far as I know you can only set user access to a file not a table within the file using phpAdmin.
  3. To each their own. Glad you found a solution you can live with. I prefer to use dbsender myself. Everytime I add a database I add a new script and cron job. They get sent to a special email address I created just for backups nightly.
  4. Welcome to the forum charlielha Don't know if you can convert pdf files on the server or not. You can open a ticket with the help desk and they will be able to tell you for sure.
  5. Please open a ticket with the help desk. Don't know why you would be getting that, I use WordPress and am having no problems and my server was converted over a week ago.
  6. Since you don't have an "id=" on your navigation DIV it is inheriting the margin-left: 10px; from one of your other "a" tags. In your CSS change your "header" style name for "a" tags to "topnav" and in your DIV give it an id of "topnav" and it should clear up.
  7. Sounds like a bad burn.
  8. In your index page you have in the for header before the for your navigation. Removing it should remove the space.
  9. You will not be able to open localhost or the IP number without running a web server on your computer. You will need something like XAMPP. But you can do it another way. You can test on the server by modifying the .htaccess file in the root folder of Wordpress. In your .htaccess file enter the following: >order deny,allow deny from all allow from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx Replace xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx with your IP address.
  10. Thanks for the compliments Ali. I'm sure they will help you sort out any issues you may be having.
  11. Glad you got it sorted out. I asked you in post 2 above. Adding the user to the database is a very important step and the one most people forget to do.
  12. No problem. Just doing what I can. If you need help we're here.
  13. Well, are you wanting to start over? The _vti folders are for FrontPage. If you are wanting to start over remove everything in the public_html folder. Or an alternative you can open a ticket with the help desk and ask them to reprovision the account. I am making an assumption that you only want a WordPress blog on your domain name. The easiest way to do it is to remove everything in the public_html folder and start fresh.
  14. What's in the public_html folder now? Have you just signed up? Did you have other stuff in there? Check your PM.
  15. Good suggestion and covered in our Everyone please read thread pinned in the Open Discussions forum.
  16. If you want Wordpress in your root folder you should upload the contents of the Wordpress archive to the "public_html" folder. So in "public_html" you would have the wp-admin, wp-content, wp-includes folders and the php files outside those three folders. I take it you are just starting your web site and Wordpress will be what you are using. What I would do at this point is remove everything in the "public_html" folder. On your computer zip up the contents of the "wordpress" folder and upload it to the "public_html" folder. Once you have it there open cPanel's File Manager, select the zip file you uploaded and select to extract it. Then delete the zip file. If you made the changes to the wp-config.php file on your computer and included it in the zip file you uploaded and extracted you are now ready to run the install script. If you didn't upload the wp-config.php file, rename the wp-sample-config.php file and edit your information into it. I've done this so many times I can practically do it in my sleep. You'll get there.
  17. They would be entered like this: define('DB_NAME', 'xxxx_yyyy'); // The name of the database define('DB_USER', 'xxxx_nnnn'); // Your MySQL username define('DB_PASSWORD', 'mypassword'); // ...and password define('DB_HOST', 'localhost'); // you won't need to change this value Yes, leave the single quote marks in there.
  18. Should open in Firefox... After you created the account it should be listed in the FTP account manager with the user name to use. The reason you need to add the @domain.ext to the login information is there could be many bob, charles, harry, etc accounts on a single server. Without the @domain.ext how would it know which password to check? How would it know what directory to log into?
  19. Welcome to the forums searlaitm Questions: 1. Did you create a database in cPanel? 2. Did you create a user for the database in cPanel? 3. Did you add the user to the database in cPanel? If the answer to all of those is yes then you need to rename the wp-config-sample.php file wp-config.php and edit the contents to something like this. >// ** MySQL settings ** // define('DB_NAME', 'cpaneluser_database-name'); // The name of the database define('DB_USER', 'cpaneluser_user-you-added'); // Your MySQL username define('DB_PASSWORD', 'the-password-for-the-user-you-created'); // ...and password define('DB_HOST', 'localhost'); // you won't need to change this value That should get you going.
  20. While cPanel is not explicit the email-type-address for an FTP login is standard practice with the exception of "anonymous" (not allowed) and your cPanel user name account. Also, there is a movie tutorial on setting up FTP accounts.
  21. You can't burn anything to a DVD? Files, music, etc? What burning software have you tried? Does it recognize the DVD burner?
  22. none
  23. As I posted earlier, if you are concerned open a ticket with the help desk and they can give you more information.

    Ruby?

    Sorry, no TCH is not any closer to a lauch date of Ruby. It has fallen down the priority list and they are currently updating all the servers to PHP5 which needs to be done.
  25. Sorry, I don't know.
