Hey whohacks, welcome to TinyPortal.
How do I manually install TinyPortal (http://docs.tinyportal.co.uk/index.php?topic=29)
Check the steps in that page to make sure you've done everything needed.
EDIT: for spelling.
how do i do a different install besides manual or do you suggest doing the manual install ?
Thanks for you QUICK repsonse !
Normally you would install through the SMF package manager because TinyPortal is a 'Mod' for SMF. If that fails for some reason then you would do the manual install.
Doing a manual install is not all that difficult to do and is a great way to learn more about your files and how they work together.

THANKS I WILL CHECK IT OUT !
okay so i have download the beta from . . . http://www.tinyportal.net/index.php/action,tpmod/dl,get886.html
and then went through my admin area in the forum and chose the ZIP and then clicked install and got a blank page . . . if i choose the unzipped folder it lets me keep clicking into the folder until i choose a file and if i choose the tp_install.php file, it goes haywire when i as if there is no css . . . i am stuck :(
When you get a blank page, are you still able to view the forum afterwards? Sounds like permissions problems. What host are you with, and what type of access do they allow you? Do you have CPanel and FTP access? If you do, I wouldn't mind doing it for you. However, if you're host is trying to be cool by having their own interface and file manager, then I don't want to touch it. lol
i use godaddy . . . and i can change CHMODS to 777 if i choose, i also have ftp. also . . .
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP !
Godaddy is not the best host to install mods to, you can change the files, but youdont wown them so the SMF files are probably missing out of the edit TP needs to work.
You have to manyally add the TP code in your SMF files
Modification Instructions (http://docs.tinyportal.co.uk/index.php?topic=140)
Then extract the TP zip file, and manually upload the files from the package to your forum folder on the server.
THANKS I WILL TRY THIS RIGHT NOW !
