basicly im trying to make it so i haveta go to the users.php page to log it, since I'll be the only account to login. I thought changing i believe it was "standard login" to false would make that possible, but now I can't log in at all! Can someone please help me!? I'm sorry for the onslaught of issues I've been having, but im just trying to get this site done. Basicly when i type in my user and password it says something about credentials and wont log me in.

You need a way to submit an SQL request to fix this one. phpMyAdmin will do, or MySQL from the command line if you have nothing else:

Text Formatted Code
UPDATE gl_conf_values SET value = 'a:3:{s:8:"standard";b:1;s:6:"openid";b:0;s:8:"3rdparty";b:0;}' WHERE name = 'user_login_method';


This will set the login options back to the defaults (i.e. enable standard login, disable OpenID and 3rd party logins).

Where could I find this "MySQL command line"? My webhosting page has a MySQL link, i clicked on PHP myAdmin and i dont see a command line anywhere. I see a sidebar with a whole bunch of different gl_'s and then in the main part i see Create New Database, Show Processes, Character Sets and Collations, Storage Engines, Databases, Export, and Log Out.

To the right off all of that there's stuff that says: Language, MySQL charset: UTF-8 Unicode (utf8), MySQL collection collation, Theme/Style, phpMyAdmin documentation, Official phpMyAdmin Homepage, ChangeLog, CVS, and Lists.

The phpMyAdmin UI differs a lot between versions ...

Try clicking on one of the table names on the left, e.g. gl_access. Then the right side should change to a tabbed interface. One of those tabs is labelled "SQL". Click that. You will get a big text input field with some SELECT statement in it. Remove that entire line and enter the SQL statement I posted above, then click the "Go" button.

ALRIGHT!! Got that fixed, now if you could tell me if there's a way to make it so i haveta go to the users.php page to log in, since I'll be the only account able to login. I just dont want that login block on the main page if other people aren't going to be logging in in the 1st place.

Edit the block named "User Functions" and uncheck the "Anonymous R" checkbox.

One final question, how can I get ads to work on my site? I've created a normal block and put the ad code in the Normal Block Options, but all that shows up is a black area with nothing in it.

Nevermind that, I figured it out, but I can't figure out how to make a block for Affiliates and make image links in html. I posted the code:
<a href="http://debasedtothis.org/"><img src="dtt.png" width="149" height="67" border="0" /></a>
<a href="http://www.thegamerstavern.com"><img src="gamerstavernlogosmall.jpg" width="149" height="67" border="0" /></a>
