I have a couple of themes and mods that require this, now I know I need to go into php My admin and do it but it won't work it keeps giving me errors. Anyone minds walking me through this step by step?
Do you use phpmyadmin for the sql query?
Well I can I have never done this before, any other info that is needed I can supply.
Okay, do you use a webhost to host your website? If so, what is the host and URL of your site?
Yes I use a webhost they are http://westernavenue.biz/

and my site is http://www.techtabs.com with the forums being http://www.techtabs.com/forums/index.php
Okay, do you have access to cpanel? If you do, login and tell me if it has a link to phpmyadmin anywhere on there. I apologize, I am not very familiar with cpanel. Let me know if it is there. It may be under "databases" or "mysql".
Yes I have cPanel and I am in phpMyAdmin, now this is where I get lost.
Okay, on your left you should see your database name, correct? It should be under the phpmyadmin logo and the "home" link. Please click on the name of the database that has your forum in it.
Ok that is done, now what?
Towards the top of the screen, you should see navigaton and one of the choices is "SQL".
