I downloaded the Music Online Hack but there are 2 folders in it!

mom_26 and Music Online Hack (Media Center)

which one i should install ?

I fixed the Digest link shortly after I posted it. It should be working now...

You can take the install.txt file from the Music Center folder and move it to the mom_206 folder. It is the EM Friendly version. It's been a long time since it was installed though and I'm sure I installed it on a much older phpBB version, so it may still need adjusting to get it to install using EM. Hopefully that won't be the case though...

Well if they do, you know how to use EM's Restore Backups Utility...

Restoring EM Backups

If a MOD that you installed with EM hosed your board or you decide that you just don't want it, simply go into EM History in your ACP MOD Center and click on the Details button next to the MOD entry..

On the bottom of the next page, select Restore Backups and press the Go button. Make sure you DON'T select the Remove Record option or you will be forced to manually rolll back the EM backups that were created for you. I will have to walk you through that if need be...

Next you will see a page to confirm eht operation. You would choose Yes:

MODs can only be uninstalled in reverse order that they were installed: FILO (First In, Last Out). So if you installed a MOD, then several others, then decided to remove the first one, you would have to Restore the backups of the other MODs before you could Restore the backups on the first MOD...

Restoring EM Backups (Manual Instructions)

If you are unable to get into the ACP, you will need to use these manual instructions to Restore the EM Backups...

Download the backups folder that EM created for you in the MOD sub-folder found in admin/mods. Strip the .txt extension from each file in every folder in the backups folder. So the resulting file extensions will be php, tpl, css, and cfg. Upload the files back to their proper locations on your board; i.e.

copy backups/admin/*.* to phpBB/admin/*.*
copy backups/includes/*.* to phpBB/includes/*.*
copy backups/language/lang_english/*.* to phpBB/language/lang_english/*.*
copy backups/templates/subSilver/*.* to phpBB/templates/subSilver/*.*
copy backups/*.* to phpBB/*.*

Of course if you have alternate templates and language folders, you will need to copy the files for them as well. I'm referring to phpBB as your forum's root folder in the above copy commands. If your root folder has any other name, just substitute phpBB with the name of your forum's root folder name...

Cool. Thanks for your explanation. I hope I will get success in installing at least in 1 MOD Wink

You might want to do a search and see if you can find newer versions of these MODs. Many of what I make available could be very old. This community is over 2 years old and many of these MODs were installed early on...

I have already installed Music Online MOD and its good. No need of newer version Wink

Email Digest I will never install hysterical2

That is too big and I am sure If i get installed also, it will mess up my forum and will bring parse errors etc on top so I am quite happy with Music Online and will figure out in ACP as how it works.

Thanks for your help and super quick replies. Applause

If your members are like our's, it's possible that no one would ever use your Digest MOD if it was installed. It has nice features, but it just doesn't get used here AFAIK So I doubt that anyone in your community would ever miss it...

Congratulations on getting the Music MOD installed...

Thank You. All is because of you. My forum is there because of you. All members, MODs, everything is because of you.

Thanks for all brother. Applause
