In theory with the advanced guestbook as all the entries and data are stored in a MySQL database you reupload all the files for it.
The only thing you might have to do is re edit your config.inc.php if necessary.

But don't upload or run the file that modifies the db coz you might overwrite the one you currently have.

Did you change this...

Chandler Mike wrote:$php_poll->set_template("poll_comment");
$php_poll->set_comments_per_page(4);
$php_poll->set_date_format("d/m/Y H:i");
$php_poll->data_order_by("time","desc");
echo $php_poll->view_poll_comments(newest);
echo $php_poll->get_comment_pages(newest);

To this?

when you say variable names you mean like unprocessed php code?
If so just change the extension from .htm/.html to .php.

Are you sure you got the correct index.php file?
Is it to view entries in the guestbook or in the admin area?

Auron

does it need chmod'ing?

Auron

if only your index.php file is missing re-download it from here.

the word newest must be double quotes " <--

Auron

Go to the Configuration/Settings -> Miscellaneous -> Display Order -> Do Not Sort

And that's it!

np, good job!

got there in the end lol

Auron

its not the button its the path if it is not the FULL path to the poll directory
it won't work.

Eg...

www.yourdomain.com/data/poll

that path would be /data/poll

even if the page the poll was on was...

www.yourdomain.com/data/poll.php

you couldn't get away with

this path /poll

you'd have to put /data/poll

You see?
Auron

If you've got cPanel then it has phpMyAdmin correct?

Auron

So your using the MySQL version then?

Then you'll need to use phpMyAdmin and find table poll_conifg and then
the field base_url and edit that to the correct path.

Auron

k, its in include/config.inc.php

The line you want is this one, #2/3...

Hope that helps,

Auron

I can send you some VERY siplified poll templates.
They work fine for me.

Auron

I think you need to make sure your poll path is set correctly or fully.
