Important Announcement

I'm searching for someone to help me at this project making something like a theme selector or so, also I want to make it that you can upload the images instead of just linking to them, if anyone could help me with that, I would be very grateful! But nothing more at the moment...

Installation

For the first time

1. Download the stuff & unzip it.
2. Setup config.php in the main directory, you need to change these: $mypagetitle, $subtitle, $antispam_word and $mysecretword (and that for all config.php files you got, also in sub-folders).
3. Images ($enable_guest_images) are set to true by default, you can disable them by setting it to false
4. (Optional) If you have images enabled, you can change the size of them by changing the $guest_image_size to something else. (MAKE SURE YOU ALWAYS GIVE THE SIZE IN PIXEL, OR ELSE IT WON'T WORK!)
5. Edit files in the /stuff/ directory: header.php and index_header.php
6. header.php: Link there to all your existing boards in $pageheader
7. index_header.php: For $index_header copy the stuff from header.php there and fix the links, for $index_boards you can do it how you like (still you should link to them)
8. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE CHMOD 777 ON THE FOLDER!
9. Setup boards (explanation below)
