just want something cleared before installing

[cru]

hi all!

1. i have a test site, and im willing to learn to install manually the latest tp version on my 1.1.3

now i notice in the "INSTALLING THE FILES FROM THE MANUAL PACKAGE" instructions in number 6.

6. Browse to the folder where you have the tinyportal manual install package extracted, upload all the files from the package to your forum folder. (make sure it's the same folder you have the SMF files in)

... there are at least 2 folders in the tp installer with the same folder name in my root folder namely., SOURCES , THEMES.

following instruction number 6 would replace the current folders? or do i have to make a tp folder where i can put the tp files?

TIA!

The files that are in the TP sources file go into the the smf sources files.  Open up the TP sources and put those files inside the smf sources.  Not the folder itself just the files inside it.

Sure thing.  If you have any more questions dont hesitate to ask.  But please we do ask our users to search first .  You will find that just about any question you may have has been answered before. Thanks Tick
