    If you mean MySQL server name/host then it'll be 'localhost'.

    Try installing SMF by using Fantastico in cPanel. It'll set everything up for you.

    Re: A Question about adding SMF

    I don't think so. No.

    Exactly what information do you need?

    Re: A Question about adding SMF

    servername: localhost
    username: You set that in cpanel, database area, when creating a database user
    password: You set that in cpanel, database area, when creating a database user
    databasename: You set that in cpanel, database area, when creating adatabase
    Table prefix: can be anything you want, if you don't plan on having more then one forum in the same database, use the default one.

    yes, it adds that to allow for more variations and easier nameings as we all share one database install, per server (otherwise if one user said they wanted a database called forum no one else would be able to use that)
