Help with install

[zebraplayer]

Hello everyone,

 

I am trying to install a mod and the install has the following instruction:

 

#####################################################

Perform the folowing command at .\catalog if on a unix shell :

 

ln -s includes/modules/phpbb2/templates/ templates

 

This creates a virtual folder to where templates are really and is important as allow to install other templates without any modifications.

If you dont have access to unix, it should be possible to implement using a the modwrite engine at .htaccess. Or just replicate the folder includes/modules/phpbb2/templates/ to /catalog/.

#####################################################

 

I do not have access to unix, so I am thinking I need to write a .htaccess file to accomplish what this guy is saying.

 

However, I have never written a .htaccess file. I know the basic idea... open notepad, write the command line needed, and save as ".htaccess".

 

But ... what would the command be that I need in order to accomplish the above task? And... where do I put the .htaccess file when it is done? Do I put it at the root level of my website, in the /templates/ folder, or in the /catalog/ folder?

 

Anything else I should know to do? When you respond, and I do hope you respond (since I got no idea how to proceed), think newbie. Cause that is definitely what I am.

 

Thanks!

Or just replicate the folder includes/modules/phpbb2/templates/ to /catalog/.

 

means copy the templates to catalog/templates
