REforum Templating

Quote from: Matt

Question though... Why are you using an abstraction layer on top of MySQLi? Wouldn't it just be easier to use an Objected Oriented approach, or are you planning on adding support for other databases?

Honestly? I started this project almost three years ago (I didn't start using github until about a year ago), it was my first experience using mysql. If I were to rewrite from scratch right now I'd almost certainly have an object oriented structure for it, but since I wrote so much of this when I was a novice it's been hard to bring the code up to my current standards. Adding the mysql interface was the best I could do without having to rewrite a huge amount of code from scratch.

On a side note, I actually committed like three whole days of work just an hour ago. You should probably merge that before going too far into any changes...

REforum Templating
Hia, feel free to make a fork and pull request. I'm actually just in the process of pushing new code that makes the page output more structured which should make templating much easier, along with a bunch of new sitewide settings.

How to install REforum on my website?

After that, connect to your site via FTP and upload all the reforum files onto the server in your destination of your choice.

What do I use to connect via FTP? FileZilla?

Your webhost should have plenty of tutorials on how to access your site ftp, and recommendations for different ftp clients. Filezilla is a very popular option.

How to install REforum on my website?
On an unrelated note, your domain name is total cancer but I'm sure you were already aware of that.

How to install REforum on my website?
Ok here is some very quick step-by-step instructions

First download agora here: https://github.com/Pecon/Agora/archive/master.zip

Then extract the files into a folder.

After that, connect to your site via FTP and upload all the agora files onto the server in your destination of your choice.

Once that's done you need to create a mysql database and user for agora to use. If your hosting provider uses cpanel, look for the mysql database wizard and use that to set up a database, user, and password for agora to use. Keep the database name, username, and password on hand for the installation.

Now browse to your site and navigate to where you placed the agora files. You should be directed to the agora setup.

Follow the instructions in the setup script. Input the mysql database name, username, and password when prompted. After the database is connected, select the settings you want for the forum. Finally, agora will create your initial admin account.

That's pretty much it.
