installing mods on smf forums
« on: January 24, 2007, 10:57 PM »
I was wondering if there is a way to install mods on smf forums with safe mode turned on? I would have to submit a proof of id to have it turned off (for security reasons). I do not want to do that, so I was wondering if anyone had a way to install mods on smf forums without having to turn off safe mode? Please help, I want to make my forums cooler.

"Cooler," huh.  I would like to see this when you get it done.  I am going to put a link to this thread to come back and take a look.

that's a very good question nite_monkey - unfortunately i'm not sure - I think it should be able to be done.
the place to ask might be http://www.simplemachines.org/community/
a quick search there suggests that safe mode should be ok:

What do you mean by "I want to make my forums cooler.?"
cooler as in better than the default install, right now I am not using any mods and havnt installed any themes yet, so it is plain and boring, so I am going to look at the links mouser posted and see if I can get it to work.

Edit: I just got finished looking at the smf forums, and found some ones method of getting around the safe mode problem, so I am going to try it when I get home from school, thanks for pointing me in the right direction mouser.
