well, i’m not real sure if it is “visible”; so that probably means two things (1) i’m a little in over my head here and (2) this is probably the problem… my site URL where i want bbpress is http://www.roninbrush.com/forum , but i have a feeling this isn’t what you need…
it does show up in phpMyAdmin as a database. it just isn’t populated with anything.
i guess i was under the impression that i wouldn’t need to know a whole bunch about database programming and that the installer would do most of the heavy lifting for me… please let me know what my next course of action should be.
yes, (i think so)
my hosting service uses cPanel, which is pretty user friendly and there is a spot for MySql databases where i can add databases and users
I have added a db named “forum” to which it adds my account name guysu2 (guysu2_forum)
same with username “bradford” to which it adds account name (guysu2_bradford)
I have tried both for set up purposes, both yield the same response.
and bradford is a user with all privileges in forum db.
it all seems to be up and running… is there a way to double check?
