For what its worth, I got the invitation for this commercial site today, so for me, turnaround was about 2 working days on both accounts.

Yeah. Last time it asked me for the physical location, I tried typing in "Midvale, UT" but it didn't work. I wonder why? Turns out the server is located on the East coast. Even still it didn't work!!

Hmmm. Thanks Mike. For curiosity's sake then, I have an additional question. Is the MX record tied to my domain at TCH? I mean, if it is the TCH techs / cPanel for my domain that edits the MX record, doesn't the mail hit my server before being told where to go (figurativley ?) Or does setting the MX record set some external setting somewhere that directs the routing of mail. I guess I just don't know enough about how mail is routed to its destination.

Yeah. What Don said. A ticket gets closed so it drops of the techs to-do list. Open tickets are ones still waiting to be addressed. If your problem isn't fixed, simply reply to the ticket, and it will be re-opened. You can even escalate a ticket to a support manager if you don't think your concern is being handled properly. (I've never had to do so, but I know the ability exists.)

I applied for it on Monday, after reading about it in this thread, and I got a response from them yesterday. I put that I have a domain for personal use, wtih only 10 accounts needed. I've been an active gmail user for almost 2 years, and briefly had an adwords account before I realized that it was cluttering my blog and made me look like I was trying to make money off of my friends visits. So my google adwors lasted all of a week on my blog. I applied yesterday for an account for a commercial real estate website that I maintain. I haven't heard back yet.

I'm always amused when they talk about the "physical" path of a digitial file. I mean, you can't touch it.

AOL It's not a plesant association, but it is an association nonetheless!

Hello

I'm not a PHP person, not really at least. But my guess is that you're having a nested apostrophe problem. It looks like you want to echo the whole line, is that right? I think that the apostrophe after the word echo is getting closed by the apostrophe between the equals sign and the word "border". Does that make sense? So what if you used double quotes around the class and style attributes. If that doesnt work, then I'd say that you might try pulling the whole thing out of PHP and rendering that line in HTML, adding just PHP code where you need it.

I got Google to host my MX records today, and it's pretty cool. Setup was easy, and now I can create up to 25 accounts on my domain with 2GB of storage space per account. Plus, unlike normal Gmail accounts, the accounts I create never expire. So you don't have to be logging in every couple of months to keep the account active. So my question is this: when an email is sent to my address, but the MX record points it at Gmail, does the message still take up bandwith space on my account?

Help desk response (since there are curious minds out there that will want to know) is that you can modify the MX record for only one of many parked domains, but it has to be done by the help desk. If you try to make the modifications on your own, you'll be up the proverbial creek without the proverbial paddle. However, if you only have one domain (no parked domains) and you want to modify the MX record, you can do it yourself in cPanel. (Ask the helpdesk if the MX modification isn't on your cPanel X Mail screen.)

Can I modify the MX records for a parked domain while leaving the MX records intact for the main domain and for another parked domain? Or is the MX record for all domains parked on the account?

Welcome to the forums, aspiringmindz. Most CMS scripts allow you to configure users who have secure access to the system. You can block certain types of content from being viewed by non-logged in members, and you can restrict new member registration. You might try some of the script installations in Fantastico in the CMS section to see if they meet your needs.

If you are hoping that you can get unique content so that you can drive up your search numbers and thus make more money, I'd recommend this: try to find a different way to make money. There is no easy way to make money online without having to do something for it. You're not goint to get "unique" content that is valuable. To get search results, you'd have to have people searching for that content. If there really was a topic that a lot of people were searching on but there wasn't any content about it out there, then why would somebody sell you the information when they could make more moeny using the content themselves? It just doesnt' make sense. Be wary (VERY wary) of any site or organization that promises to give you unique content that you're going to make money off of. Chances are they'll make money off you, and you'll end up poor and with poor content. Like has been mentioned above, if you want to drive traffic to your site, you've got to do the leg work to make your site (1) visually appealling, and (2) full of valualbe content. It's not easy to make a great site that makes moeny on the web. On the web as in real-life, you've got to work for it by finding your own idea and then capitalizing on it.

Welcome to the forums, Cat!! Sorry we can't help with the cPanel username issue, but if we can be of further assitance, please don't hestitat to shout out. We love to help!

game EDIT: just realized this is a repeat from like 6 words ago... Sorry.

Hi buggurl, Welcome to the forums. The latest version of phpBB is 2.0.20. If you aren't runing 2.0.20, you'll need to download the latest version from phpBB and upgrade. Don't worry. You won't lose your data. A few things to remember: 1. When you are making your upgrade, you should first revert to the default theme. Not all themes are compatible with later versions. 2. It might be best if you lock your board (there is a one-check box setting for disabling your board in the admin panel) while you do the upgrade. This won't be for more than 15 minutes, hopefully, and it will keep your users out of the system while you are removing and updating files. 3. The instructions for upgradinging are included with the download package. You can get the download package from: http://www.phpbb.com/downloads.php 4. If you are running phpBB version 2.0 or later, then the best option is probably to download the Changed Files version. You'll download this file and then extract it using file extraction software. (This is built into Windows XP, so if you are using Win XP, you can just double-click the file to open it.) You'll get a bunch of files including some more compressed files. You'll need to extract the compressed file that corresponds to the version of phpBB you are currently running. For example, if you are running 2.0.15, then you'll want to extract the "2.0.15 to 2.0.20 file". (Filenames aren't exact. You'll have to download it and you'll see which ones I mean.) 5. Then look for an upgrade instruction file included in the extracted files. That will tell you exactly what to do. Basically you're going to delete files on your server. (Be careful to follow the directions exactly. Your data is all stored in the database, so you won't ruin that, but if you aren't careful you might delete your configuration file or your theme/mod files.) Then you'll upload the new files to your sever, and you'll go to a page (also in the instructions) that will update your database structure and get you off to the latest version. If you get stuck, post back and somebody here will be able to help you, hopefully.

Hi Drake, Welcome to the TCH forums!! If this is even possible, it will require a help desk ticket. There is a link to the help desk at the top of the page. Good luck!!

Stefan, I LOVED the song! Great job! I downloaded it to add it to my play list. Thanks!

Those darn semicolons get me every time...

Isn't that the truth. I've caused myself so much headache because I've tried to "fix" things that worked when I started but didn't when I finished...

Glad you solved your problem. Don't be afraid to contact the help desk, however. They really are nice people. And you are paying them for their help (through your monthly hosting fees). BTW, We haven't seen you in the forums since December, and I'm not sure you got a proper welcome even back then. So welcome (back) to the forums! Don't be a stranger!

I'm not an expert here, but it seems that you should write a PHP script that uploads the file to the server. Then you would use cPanel to create a cron job to execute the script at a specific interval. Shouldn't be too hard. Maybe somebody can give you some more specific help if you need it.
