How can i install modphpbb3? godaddy hosting.

Post by BigSlice »

Hey I am looking to install modphpbb3 onto my forum I currently have phpbb3 3.0.8 installed but due to me having no php and mysql knowledge and my html is very very basic. I installed phpbb via godaddys one click applications service. I dont know how to access phpmyadmin or anything :(. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance

shouldn't you ask godaddy how to reach those areas, not all hosts have the same way to get to those areas!
you will have to ask them first! I really don't know how to help you that way! unless someone here has their hosting with them and know about it!

Login at GoDaddy, go to your dashboard and after it has loaded in one of the boxes you need to open will be the SQL database options. Create a database, write down the name and path as well as password to the database.

Afterward it will state it will take xxx minutes or hours b4 it's available. I have never had to wait more than 15 minutes and I have 7-8 databases running there.
