Full Version: Can't activate OUGC Awards

Hello!

I'm trying to install OUGC Awards 1.0.7, but it is not working.

I did what the instructions said: I put the "Upload" folder on my MyBB root folder, but when I log into the Admin CP, the link to activate the plugin does not appear.

Help, please?


Thanks!
you have to add the contents of the upload folder - not the upload folder itself
if you are using a ftp client (eg. FileZilla) then you can drag the contents of upload folder (use select all)
to MyBB files server root folder (where global.php file exists)

(replies here might help)

I think I'm putting the files in the wrong folders. XD

Where do I put these files:

awards php (inc/plugins/ -- I think)
awards_update php (inc/plugins/ -- I think)
ougc_awards php (inc/plugins/ -- I think)
bullet_green (it's an image)
bullet_red (it's an image)
awards.php , awards_update.php files from upload folder --> root folder of MyBB files server (where global.php exists)

files & subfolder with contents from upload/inc/plugins folder --> ./inc/plugins folder

subfolder with contents from upload/images folder --> ./images folder

When I go to my Admin CP, this message appears:

please check this once again :

It worked! Thanks a lot, my friend.
next time you may be sure to add files with an structure, because many modders add files to similar form on MyBB, example:

I mage a plugin and give a name upload, myplugin to files of plugin and files inded, like readme.txt, license.txt, and maybe a folder named example, to see what plugin do.

But many times add only structured files, you have to see inside ever folders like.

inc/some folder/some files
images/some folder/some files
jscript/some files

You have to go to your FTP client an upload every file inside the target to do his job.
