I've spent the last two and a half days setting up a website with the Joomla PHP code and I was extremely excited on the way things turned out after editing the template images and rearranging the appearance of the modules (polls, blogs, news flash, random images). Then I learned that the blog feature is not interactive on Joomla; I can blog, but others cannot reply. This sent me searching for improvements and I winded up installing a Simple Machines forum code to complement Joomla. YAY!!

Then after all that and two days later, I was busily trying to bridge the two of these operations together and I got an error that I could not repair!! I deleted the Joomla SMF Hack folder from my site via my ftp client. Big mistake I guess, because I couldn't reinstall, and I couldn't get the path to clear! I tried toying around in the server's sql tables, but I was not able to find anything that I understood to be the hack.

I flushed this project and will start it over. I am a bit angry that you cannot type the uninstall into the browser and get rid of the hack. It says in the uninstall file "Direct access is not allowed" I browsed all over the forums and all I could find were phrases like "be sure to uninstall the hack"; "be sure to unpatch before upgrading". But I did not find any instructions for noobie geeks that mess things up!

I hate stuff, don't you?
