Issue with installation of "Multiple Forums Adding" mod by Zaher1988

[mkmybb]

Hey all,
I tried searching the forum but just couldn't locate a solution. If there is a thread, kindly direct me there.

I am trying to install this MOD:

Multiple Forums Adding (1.0)
Adds as forums as you want in 1 click
Created by Zaher1988

His instructions there as follows:

1.Upload mfd.php to ./admin
2.Upload mfd.lang.php to ./inc/languages/english/admin
3.Upload mfdp.php to ./inc/plugins
4.Chmod ./admin/index.php to 777
5.Go to Admin CP > Board Settings > Plug-in Manager > Activate
6.You may now reset that chmod of ./admin/index.php back to 755

I have done the first 4 but after step 4, my entire MyBB dashboard goes empty and white when i try to navigate to the plugin page (any page actually).

I contacted my hosting provider who told me that they force a particular permission to be in use for security reasons. But they changed it for few seconds to let me activate the plugin and during this time, i get the following error:

Warning [2] fopen(./admin/index.php) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory - Line: 24 - File: inc/plugins/mfdp.php PHP 5.2.17 (Linux)

What can i do to solve this issue?
Or are there are better or alternative mods that will let me create bulk forums within a category (rather than me setting it up each time)?

Thanks all,
mkmybb

[.m.]

it was coded for an earlier version of MyBB and does not work with the recent versions.
IIRC, such plugin does not exist for the recent versions of MyBB. instead you can try Copy Forum method
