The one on this site that records payments etc.?

I've searched and can't find, or don't know what it's called?

Ok I found it

But why does it say this:

Unpack all the file unders "html" into your Nuke root

If I do that won't it replace all the original folders and files?

wtf

Why would it do that, unless you have a package that replaces all of phpNuke's files (index.php, mainfile.php, etc)? You probably just have a file in html/blocks/block-XXX.php

but if it replaces the folder, wouldn't it just overwrite everything with the new folder and its contents?

Extract the sql/Treasury.sql and drop it into mysql.

What is meant by this?

'drop it into mysql'

Because "unpack" is not the same as "replacing" Smile

Basic computer usage skills here; you don't simply overwrite an entire folder. You can continue to add to the folder, you only overwrite files.

Into Mysql can be done through many ways, either command line mysql or the easiest way, phpMyAdmin
