I'm setting up a MyBB forum on the domain ptob.co.cc with a free host lazbit.com that gave me FTP Access and everything. I uploaded the files to a directory called "forum" but I don't know what to do next. Can someone help me? Thanks and please.
After uploading you have to navigate to the install directory.
http://ptob.co.cc/install/
Be sure to FTP the files according to instructions and have your MySQL connection information ready.
Refer to
[Wiki: Installing] (Broken link, head over to docs.mybb.com instead) for more details.
That link doesn't work. :/ I uploaded them. How would I make the co.cc domain work? I put the DNS already.
The link works. I just checked.
If you already changed the DNS, then you need to add the domain in cPanel (or whatever your web host uses), wait for the domain to propagate, and then change the board URL in MyBB's Admin CP.
It redirects me to this
http://69.170.135.91/
Idk why.
Would I add it in cPanel under Addon-Domain? And also how do I set up my MySQL table? I need the coding for it and I apologize for being a noob at this.
Have you created a database for your forum? To create one go to MySQL database wizard in cPanel and follow the steps.
Indeed I have but I need to add the structure and columns to it and idk what to put there.
The database is automatically populated during the install script.
