I've been looking for a support place for my forum for awhile now, and I hope this place can help...

I've tried to edit various codes within the HTML Templates (specifically the banner), making sure that I'm editing the corret piece each time and no matter what I do I'm presented with an error message saying:

I'm at a loss as to how to work it out...
Thank you very much if you can help, and thanks anyway if you can't.

Sorry, this is only a support board for Forumer's freely-hosted boards. I do know what your problem is, though, so I'll move this to General Chat now.


Alright, the problem is within the CHMOD settings of your board. I'm guessing you don't know what that is, so here's how to change it.

Do you have FTP access? Can you access your forum's core files? If so, go to the FTP siite of your board and try a few things...

Right-click on the file "skin_global.php" in skin/s1 and look for 'properties' or 'chmod'. If you do find a bunch of boxes that you can check and uncheck, check them all.

Look for any sort of dialogue mentioning 'CHMOD'.

I'm not sure if you'll understand that or not, so just say so.

If you had of signed up with forumer you would have to wait until you have $500 fBucks which will allow you to put your banner up.

Good luck with your forum regardless.
