Your copy of MyBB has successfully been installed and configured correctly.
The MyBB Group thanks you for your support in installing our software and we hope to see you around the community forums if you need help or wish to become a part of the MyBB community.
Please remove this directory before exploring your copy of MyBB."
but i thought that everything is alright, Then i visited my site
http://uchenna.nowfreehosting.com. instead of mybb board to appear i could only see index of, upload, document and mybb zip.
Tell me what the problem is and how to tackle it. please i need a quick reply i'm just fade up i hope you will bring me back to life.
First, your site doesn't load.
Second, the folder is called 'Upload' because it's telling you that's everything you need to upload. You've uploaded everything including the documentation. You'll need to move everything from the Upload folder back a directory.
MR MALCOM please i'm a rookie in that aspect you are talking about please explain better
Copy all the files in your "Upload" directory on your webserver and paste them into your root directory (usually public_html)
MR MALCOM please i'm a rookie in that aspect you are talking about please explain better
pjgi how can i do that
Did you used FTP or your host's File manager to upload the package?
Either way, use FTP or your host's file manager, to move files inside upload folder to the root, where you have upload and documentation folders.
should i move or copy all the files in both upload and document folder to the root directory(public_html)
^ files from documents folder not required. contents of upload folder with subfolders needs to be in public_html
ok i have copied them to my legacy file manager take a look at it and tell me how to install
