    Config.php file set up

    Can someone please help me setup up my config.php. I should have all the required info but I'm not sure what to input into the commented areas.

    Here is the online documentation explaining the config.php file and variables:

      Thank you,

      What should ['Database']['tableprefix'] = '' be set to?

        If this is a fresh installation and new database, then I would leave it at the default.

            If its an upgrade you don't really need to edit the config.php as it always the same I believe.

            You keep your old config.php that's what I do and it works everytime.

                Well then you should still have your databases. Just go into the MySQL database section in the cpanel. And just look at your database info and just re put it into the config.php


                Databse= Database name
                Username= the username listed in the database.
                Password= the password to the name listed in the database.

                There that should help you out.
