Unfortunately at the present time this integration will not work with mySQL. You need to be using the SQL Server or Acces version of web wiz forums.

You can’t integrate with mySQL although it appears in the dropdown menu, it has to be a standalone newspad for mySQL users. The whole point of me buying this product was to integrate it with my forum but now it appears this can’t be done. I can’t remember seeing anything stating this would not work when I bought it, I think something like this should be made clear and a discount offered. Unless there is another way to integrate. |

What? Do you think after nearly 6 months of posting this first note, that you should get something for nothing? Looking at the actual download page under System Requirements http://www.webwiz.net/webwiznewspad/kb/requirments.asp it makes it clear enough to me that this software is designed to implement with SQL database, although it can run as an independent software in its own right. Hopefully, you raised this concern shortly after your original purchase, as I think after 6 months it would be poor show to complain when you claim that they were issues you weren't happy about that far back. ------------- http://www.123simples.com/" rel="nofollow - Visit 123 Simples Web Design |

Yes I’m the first to admit been a long time between posts, I Never did get a reply. Never mind nice to get some kind of reply after nearly 6 months of posting my first note. And I don’t think I was trying to get something for nothing, I did send an email asking at the time if this product would work for me and the response was yes. And yes I raised my concern never got a reply, |

Hi numanme The forums are good for general questions and trying to find solutions for problems, but they are not dedicated support or after sales. My advice would be for you to http://www.webwiz.net/contact/contact_sales.asp" rel="nofollow - contact Bruce at sales , and raise your concerns, and look back at your emails for the product you purchased.
It may be that the answer was yes as the product does work, but your point I guess was will it work as part of a mySQL based forum, which clearly I think Bruce has highlighted in his post 13th April 2009 that it would not. Therefore I assume that your initial question to him in your email was unclear, and hence why he told you yes originally. I do not work for Web Wiz so I cannot give you any definitive solutions or answers for this, but I know that they are a reputable company, who will look at your case and should be able to give you some sort of resolution for this. I hope that helps somehow, as I say contact Sales and see what happens. ------------- http://www.123simples.com/" rel="nofollow - Visit 123 Simples Web Design |
