I need help coding, i don't know what FTP means or what it does. so i need help there. basically setting up the site to look like other mods, that have forums incorporated within it, and the forums like has a store(like AoSW), and other features from Imperial Assault II and LoW( music, looks, Faction Pages, etc...) and with the site, we would like to have a main site that provides news for the current mods, links(affialates, links to us), sub-sites under the main site for mod specific sites (Like Clone Wars, Galactic Civil War, Jedi Civil War, etc.....). forums for each mod site if possible to keep organized (for future use). i think that's about it

FTP is the protocol used to upload the files to your webspace.

Use FTP programs to be able to upload and delete files on aotor.petrolution.net.

Check my PM for more information about it. Filezilla is easy to use, as long as you read what is written on your screen. And the program is freeware and open source.

By the way: FTP = File Transfer Protocol. Does it make sense now ?

With the FTP problem sorted or almost being solved, let's go to the other part of this paragraph:

Forums:

AoSW are not incorporated with them. They have separate forums with their own skin. You can use your Revora forums and you can skin it. The problem is that I'll need to ask Mastermind how hostees could skin their forums, since the skin zone was deactivated since the hacking event in the last month.


Store in the forums:

No, we don't offer this support on Revora, sorry. At least not yet.


Music:

That can be placed in the background of the site, but, honestly, I do not recommend it. Some users may listen to their own musics while browsing sites and your music will conflict with theirs. Also, you need to avoid copyright problems.


News with current mods:

Have you ever thought about helping Petrolution?
You can even have a site to post news about mods, but it's redundant and that will distract you from your purpose (finishing AOTOR)


Subsites and forums from other mods:

This action is heavly not recommended, unless you have permission from these mod teams. Otherwise, it's considered ripping and it will isolate you from the rest of the community and your hosting can be revoked.
