- Each of those subdirectories represents a directory on your server. You need to create the directories on the server, then upload the contents of each folder on your PC to its equivalent folder on the server.

One step too many. Just drag-and-drop all the directories that came out of the ZIP file and all the files will be uploaded too.

ftp://www.yourdomain.com or ftp://yourservername

Clicking on those links I receive an error saying Windows cannot access this folder.Make sure you type the file name correctly or have permission to access this folder. DETAILS a connection to the server could not be established.

Your website is not yourdomain.com. Your website is whatever you created. If your website is www.curly27.com, then that's what you should connect to.

I just made another FTP account and it was successful but does not show who is supplying it...btw I can make up to 100 ftp accounts

Creating FTP accounts usually creates OTHER areas of your site that OTHER people can drop files in. This is not what you want.

To change what appears on your www.curly27.com site, you will want to connect to curly27.com and login using the username and password they gave you.

If my domain name were www.weslayanbicycles.com, I would FTP to weslayanbicycles.com and use the login and password that I use to get into the Control Panel.

I must ask them how much space each one can store

Those FTP accounts share from the same space. If have a 250MB website, those FTP accounts can contain a TOTAL of 250MB.

FELDON...I am conceding I cannot do this mate...but thank you for

Curly, calm down man. This is minor stuff. Really. First, obtain a copy of WinSCP. (When you install it, choose the "dual window" method.) You'll be glad you did! Now here's what you do (after you've cleaned up the mess on your server):

- Tak a nice fresh copy of the vB ZIP file. Place it in its own folder on your PC (nothing else in the folder)

- Extact the contents to that folder. A series of subdirectories will be created.

- Each of those subdirectories represents a directory on your server. You need to create the directories on the server, then upload the contents of each folder on your PC to its equivalent folder on the server.

If you did it right, you'll be up and running.

NOTE: Use ASCII transfer method for the PHP files.

Holy Guacamoly what did ya just say??? LOL

I just purchased the install...I am going to sit back and let vbulletin do it for me...this stuff is way over my head....

Fixing your computer? That's $60/hour. If it's a Compaq, I charge $120/hr.
