Write your message below:

Thank you so much for making this message board script available to all of us... now if only I can configure it properly. The only message I found in the forum that seemed to apply was titled "not savin new html" but there was no reply to it. Messages post to my mboard just fine, but as soon as a reply is made the previous message is "cleared" and cannot be viewed. All that comes up is a link to its reply. The replies are saved in my msg folder but they have no content (0 bytes). I've set the permissions as instructed. Do I have my folders configured incorrectly? Any direction you can send me in to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. Just in case it may be helpful, below is my settings.php file:

// What type of server is your website on?
// 1 = UNIX (Linux), 2 = Windows, 3 = Machintos
$settings['system']=1;

// Password for admin area
$settings['apass']="*****";

$settings['website_title']="MichaelMerton.com";

// Website URL
$settings['website_url']="http://www.michaelmerton.com/";

// Message board title
$settings['mboard_title']="";

// URL to folder where message board is installed
// DO NOT a trailing "/" !
$settings['mboard_url']="http://www.michaelmerton.com/mboard";

// Allow smileys? 1 = YES, 0 = NO
$settings['smileys']=1;

// Send you an e-mail when a new entry is added? 1 = YES, 0 = NO

$settings['keepoldmsg']=1;

/* Filter bad words? 1 = YES, 0 = NO */
$settings['filter']=0;

/* Filter language. Please refer to readme for info on how to add more bad words
to the list! */

Hello,

First of all you shouldn't post your password here so I edited your post.

Not sure why that happens, have you been editing the HTML code within mboard.php file?

I don't know how exactly GoDaddy hosting is setup but I do know many people had problems with them because they restrict a lot of functions.

Also try uploading this file and post the link here, perhaps I get an idea:
