    Re: Help uploading & installing Joomlahacks bridge?

    • Hi all, so this is what I posted at the joomlahacks forum, and no responses yet...
      Maybe you helpful folks here can advise...

      "Please pardon my complete ignorance in these matters... I am totally new to websites & coding and such. The termonology makes my head spin :-\

      I tried to follow to instructions from the manual... got joomla installed through Fantastico, and am trying to manually install smf. Using UnlimitedFTP, managed to transfer the smf files from my desktop to the server. It now sits in a folder alongside .cpanel, public_html, and other stuff.

      What are my next steps? Do I transfer the smf folder into the public_html folder? Or do I need to be more specific and put it into the templates folder (within public_html)? Please advise!

      Thanks,
      ~M"

    • The best way to install SMF is through the Fantastico, at the same place where you got the fantastico for Joomla(you server host company) you will find this for SMF, when it be installed, will ask for a upgrade, do it and all will be ready.
      Now talking about the bridge...i know that its no longer avaliable..i tried and tried and find with some problems when i got installit .
      Currently i switch to Fireboard www.bestofjoomla.com/ , include some goods for joomla, as bridge and full integration CB+Joomla.

      I need to install smf manually (not through fantastico) because it needs to end up in the same database as joomla (per the instructions on installing the bridge). Fantastico automatically installs them in separate databases.

      Are you saying that the Joomlahacks bridge is no longer functional? I was under the distinct impression that it is one of the more widely used bridges among the folks here...

      Yes, do tell if it works! Because I am not sure where to go from where I stopped. The instructions I downloaded from the joomlahacks site are pretty good, but they are geared towards people who have at least a minimal understanding of how these things work... I am still in the learning phase:)
