When you created the db, it should have asked you for a database name that you wanted to name it. It also asked you for a password and your username. Those are the values you place in there.

I got it up, i see what i did wrong, my bad

lol, ok IM a total newb so this may sound like a realy dumb ???? When using phpnuke, am I designing my site around it??? I have only used basic html to build my site before, but from what i think im seeing so far is that basically i build my site around it??? Do I use my current site to lets say access my php content, like a froum etc... Do i use my phpnuke administation panel to create php, then put links in my html to direct viistors to that php, say link them to a forum that ive created in my nuke?????

Nuke is a CMS ...pretty much a complete website in itself. Heres some reading: [ Register or login to view links on this board. ] and [ Register or login to view links on this board. ]
