Alright so you have a contract with a webhost, what are the things you can do and can't?By the way I suggest you use Host Monster - Web hosting if your thinking of a host, Me ( WoWMafia) , WoW Fusion and many other servers use hostmonster because its the best and the cheapest.
Pages that can be hosted off the website:
Armory
Forums
Other Misc. Pages
In this tutorial I will show be using Julianx's Website.
Step 1:
******
Open Navicat. Click on Manage Users. Click Add a New User. Fill in the information with what you want BUT in the host box put the % symbol. This will allo every ip adress to connect to your mysql, so make sure that after this you have a good password!
Step 2:
******
Time to configure you files! Open the Armory folder, open includes and open config.inc, you should see this ( configure properly with the descriptions):
______
|Armory|:
******
Now go back and open the forums folder, then open config.php<?php
//Database Configuration
= "host"; // Enter your ip adress here( go to WhatIsMyIP.com to find out)
= "user"; // mysql username ( usually root)
= "pass"; // mysql password
= "name"; // logon mysql database
//Characters List Configuration
= 50 // How many characters will be showed per page
?>
_______
|Forums|
*******
<?php
// phpBB 3.0.x auto-generated configuration file
// Do not change anything in this file!
= 'mysqli';
= 'host; // Change this to your ip adress
= '';
= 'forums'; // databse where you extracted the forums sql file
= 'user'; // mysql username
= 'pass; // mysql password
= 'phpbb_';
= 'file';
= '';
@define('PHPBB_INSTALLED', true);
// @define('DEBUG', true);
// @define('DEBUG_EXTRA', true);
?>
Step 3:
******
Once these are configured properly just upload them to your host!
For the stats page you will have to put that on your dns that you can get at No-IP - Dynamic DNS, Static DNS for Your Dynamic IP or DynDNS -- Dynamic DNS, E-Mail Delivery and Other Services
