Well, I seem to have "successfully" installed MyBB, but there seems to be some problems.

Detailed description of your problem, including steps to reproduce if necessary
1) There is no theme. I would imagine that upon installing MyBB, there would at least be the default theme attached? Mine shows nothing but text and tables. 2) Some links (for example, the Login one) won't lead to the correct page, but rather to the host website (000webhost.com).

URL to your forum/URL to specific problematic page.
Right here.

New installation or upgrade (from which version of MyBB)
New installation.

I'm new to PHP/MySQL/etc, so if it's something involving that, I'm sorry for the stupid questions. I just really didn't want to spend five hours trying to figure this out with no avail. xD

Thanks in advanced.
Your Board URL setting is wrong, you must have changed it in the installation script. It's currently http://rokon.site90.net/forums but should be http://rokon.site90.net/mybb as your files are in the /mybb/ folder. Edot this at ACP > Configuration > General Configuration.
MattRogowski:
Ah thankyou so much! Alternatively, I changed the file name to Forums since that's what I wanted originally.

Glad to see that fixed both problems. xD
In that case you'll also need to change your cookie domain. If you can login to the ACP go to the General Configuration settings again and change the cookie path from /mybb/ to /forums/

If you can't edit it in the ACP you'll need to edit it in ./inc/settings.php, and then the ACP after.
Yeah, I was just looking into the logging in/out issues, I couldn't edit it through ACP since I kept getting logged out every action, but I'll try the other method you just suggested.
