whitehawk43 Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 Hello I am adding the lightbox contribution add-on and I was wanting to know what does happen when the contribution says to import the sql file and run it what does the SQl file do to my files of the OSC program files if anything Thanks for your time and hope this was the right place to ask this question Ben Quote
♥geoffreywalton Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 It updates the database so the contribution can work 1) Go to your ISPs admin area for your site. 2) Click on the icon for Mysql, then find the link for phpmyadmin, it might be hidden away at the bottom but not on all admin sites. If you can’t find this, please consult your ISP's help desk. 3) In some cases, you may have to choose which database your OSC tables are located on. If this is the case, please choose using the dropdown box. 4) Click on "SQL" on the navigation bar. 5) Enter/paste your SQL in the textbox provided or, if you have a file containing the sql commands, click on Import and follow the on screen prompts. 6) For both methods click "Go".. 7) If all goes well, your SQL query will run successfully For another explanation see:- http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/index.php?sho...dmin+mysql+code Or for a contribution to allow you to run SQL Script from Admin http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,4567 Cheers!

OK thanks the reason for the question about the light box is that I had it working on site then made changes to the site layout and now it is not also after I did install the lightbox I had 2 images to click on for a larger image so I was not sure it it was over writing main.php files or if the chages I mad on site after the install made it not work now I got a idea where to go if I have any more question I will post more Thanks Ben Quote
whitehawk43 Posted September 8, 2008 Author Posted September 8, 2008 (edited) Just a Update to my question all went well its working now took care of the dubble image problem by going and login into my addmin and changes small image size to zero I don't know if that was the right way but by doing so it seems to have canclead the default setting in OSC Thanks again Ben Edited September 8, 2008 by whitehawk43 Quote
