Hi Everyone !

I have a server that has a autoinstaller for php-nuke that sets up php nuke for you and writes to the db. The problem is when you set it up it makes you make a folder for nuke in the public html folder. I want the index.php to be the index for the mainpage and Im not sure how to make this happen as it stands now you would have to have a index.html page and then make a link to the php. I even tryed using a htaccess and a redirect for the url to that page of nuke and nothing works to get me to where ppl sign in on the scripts. Any help or thoughts would be great Thanks

When you use the installer just leave the line that it asks for the directory (if it automatically put it there erase it) you want it in. Then it will install it in the main directory.

Thanks I tried that but it errors telling you that you cant put all the scripts there. It forces you to make a subfolder from the public folder to install. Guess I need to figure out how to redirect my main index to the main php-nuke page instead.

just a suggestion...why dont you make an intro page as your index.html you can also leave this blank under public_html and make a subfolder as phpx or whatever.... im no expert just a suggestion

...Or you can do this the manual way by uploading all the nuke folders and files into your root directory using FTP, then either run a pre-made installer or setup your sql tables with the sql file that comes with PHP-Nuke. Just another suggestion,
echo

Or if your ftp will let you (cuteftp does) right click on the directory and then move it into the main directory.

Cool feature Telli, I use WS-FTP and it also supports "drag and drop" so you just highlight everything you want to upload (folders and all) and either drag it over to the other pane or theres a little arrow indicator you can click...these modern FTP utilities are very nice with all these smart features.
