Re: What's the Best Practice to backup database periodically

You could use mysqldump in a cron job. Or use a backup service such as Tomahawk to automate and send it off-site.

Keep globalSearchBox on every page

Currently if I click an FAQ, the "Search" bar disappears. I would like it to stay put on all pages. My php skills are limited but I found the code below from the index.tpl, but I'm not sure how to accomplish this. If I remove the [globalSearchBox] tags, then it stays on all pages but searc...

Configure SMTP Auth on Linux w/ PEAR?

Hi, can anyone show me how to configure phpMyFAQ to use SMTP authentication? We use the authsmtp.com hosted SMTP service and I'd rather not have to install a local postfix or sendmail server. I have installed php-PEAR on my CentOS server, but not sure what to do next. I'm kind of a noob when it come...

Re: New Install / Can't "Search"

I just realized you meant disable Rewrite in the admin console. That fixed it. Sorry - I'm just learning. Thank you

Re: New Install / Can't "Search"

I've updated to 2.6.8 and renamed .htaccess backup to _.htaccess.
Search works fine, but all of the faq, category and home page links end with .html instead of php. Very odd.
Also, no /faq/content folder exists on the server.

I may just start over

Re: New Install / Can't "Search"

I also notice all of the hyperlinks on faq/index.php end with the .html extension. (e.g. http://www.url.com/faq/instantresponse.html). Any help is appreciated. I've already implemented these fixes FYI. http://github.com/thorsten/phpMyFAQ/commit/532de1af5c0c5bd77e16f8340a4e1921ff65e3da http://github....

Re: New Install / Can't "Search"

I found the "RewriteBase" in the faq/.htaccess file and changed it to /home/web/www/public_html/faq. (Is that correct?)
I still do not have any "content" or "category" directories. Do I need to create them?

Re: New Install / Can't "Search"

Sorry for the delay - -I didn't get an email saying the post has been replied to. That did fix the search issue - sorry about that. Thanks! I'm not quite sure what this means from the install guide (or where I edit the path): "You also have to edit the path information for the "RewriteBase...

New Install / Can't "Search"

Hi, I've successfully installed phpMyFaq and it's working except for the "Search" function. When I search for terms, it just shows a directory listing of /faq (attached). I'm fairly new to the linux/apache world. Any ideas what to check?
