Can I remove the credit line that says “Powered by [name of script here]” and/or put it on a separate page?
No. The conditions of you using our scripts are that the credit line is not removed in any way, shape or form. You may not remove the credit line, or move it to another place. If you would like to do this, you will need written permission from the script author first, and they may charge you for this. Our staff put many hours into creating, testing and securing the scripts they write. They make no money from these scripts and simply want recognition for their work.
All scripts available at CodeGrrl.com are LINKWARE. This means that you MUST provide a link back to CodeGrrl.com, and if there is a credit line embedded into the script, you are NOT to remove it, as this violates our terms of use.

What happened to Flinx, PHPFanBase, PHPCalendar, PHPCurrently, etc?
What happened to Flinx/PHPFanBase/PHPCalendar/PHPCurrently and other scripts you used to offer? I can’t find them in the Scripts section anymore! Where can I download it? Can you email it to me?
Several CodeGrrl scripts, including PHPFanBase, Flinx, Flinx Collective, FA-PHPHosting, sflinks, PHPAffili8, PHPCurrently, PHPCalendar, PHPClique, and PHPQuotes, have been taken down off CodeGrrl temporarily. We have decided to take this action after we were made aware of several security risks with these scripts. In a worst-case scenario, having them installed could lead to your site being hacked.
Obviously, we are horrified by this as the last thing we want is to endanger the sites of our visitors! So we have taken the scripts offline while we are working hard to secure them. They will be available here again once we are sure the security problems have been fixed.
No, we will not email the old version to you in the mean time. It is insecure and we do not recommend you use it at this time. Please be patient and keep an eye on the Updates blog - we’ll post there when the scripts are back online!

Database information to enter into config.php?
What do I enter in the config file under dbhost, dbname, dbuser and dbpass? How/Where do I get this information?
To install PHPFanbase, first you need to create a SQL Database to house all your member information in, and a username and password so PHPFanbase can access it. You can create these through your domain cPanel under MySQL or SQL. If done correctly the data you enter into PHPFanbase should then look something like this:
$dbhost = "localhost"; $dbname = "domainnam_fans"; $dbuser = "domainnam_yourname"; $dbpass = "password";
Depending on your host, you may need to enter your domain username as part of your username and/or database name.
If you have hosting on someone else’s domain and don’t have access to the main Control Panel, you need to ask your host to create a SQL database, username and password for you. The username they create for you also needs to have ALL ACCESS to the database for PHPFanbase to work properly.

When I view the archives page at archives.php, I get this error: “Can’t select from table in the database. SELECT timestamp, id, title FROM php_blog WHERE FROM_UNIXTIME( timestamp, ‘%Y’)= ORDER BY id DESC” OR I get this message: “Invalid year specified”.
You cannot go directly to archives.php — you must view the archives page by going to archives.php?year=xxxx (where xxxx is a year in which you have written blog entries).

I get the following error when going to any of the .php pages: “Unable to select database.”
This means there is a problem with your database connection. Open up config.php and carefully re-check your database information. Make sure you have put in the right MySQL username, database name and password, and that you have added the MySQL user to the MySQL database with all permissions. If you are unsure about what your username, etc are, check your domain control panel. In cPanel, there will be a section for MySQL, that will list your MySQL usernames and database names. If you still can’t figure it out, please contact your host and ask them.
If the script used to work just fine, and it suddenly started giving this error without you touching any databases, it means there’s something wrong on your server. The SQL server could be temporarily down. If this problem does not go away, you should contact your host to ask them about this.
