so far i can only uplaod things like .xml
for Mods
how do i upload the Php files? and all
also were is the ftp access so i can upload those items?
thx
 
You need an FTP client software like Filezilla or Bitvise Tunnelier. You really don't want to be using a PHP FTP client, too many ways for it to break and time out. The upload utility in vBulletin is PHP based so it has all the timing and size restrictions that PHP has. If you are uploading sources, you really need a proper FTP client software to keep you out of unnecessary trouble.
 
you need at first a hoster. ~ FTP & SQL & MYSQL4-5
and THEN you don't need just a good client, you need a very good client. Cause if it write in Flash for Example (I saw it Onetime, no kidding) it it slooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow.
I'm using Core FTP at most. It's fast, It have a lot of good Stuff (like proxy Setting etc.), and so one.

And the installing is easy.

at last you've to visit:

hxxp://yourforum.com/install/install.phpyourforum.com - and then just next......next......next.....

Sorry for double posting but
ok so i got everything and when uploading the php files do i upload to the folder where the rest of the files go exluding the xml
 
Okay!

If the Upload files are in different folders, like 'admincp', 'includes~>xml' you have du upload it in the folders with same name.

Sry for my English -.-

So....if 2 files of the new mod are in the admincp folder, you have to upload it into the 'admincp'. whats so strong?
 
That would be a very positive, yes. EVERYTHING, folders and files from the upload folder go to your forum root folder on your server. Better to create and edit your config.php file while you are at it so it gets uploaded too.
