" Simply copy them to your forum's root directory (i.e. copy them to yourforum.com/phpBB3) overwriting folders when specified by the FTP client.
Note: The develop directory is not needed and is why it is no longer included in the zip file.
After uploading the files, you need to run the install script. You will find it in the /install/ directory.
Updated screenshots for 1.0.0-RC3 are pending. 1.0.0-RC3 adds a new UMIL-based installer, which is simpler than the old installer. Essentially all you should need to do is go to http://www.example.com/phpBB3/install/ and tell the installer that you wish to install AutoMOD."
I don't have a " yourforum.com/phpBB3", it doesn't exist... I'm unsure where, in my file manager, is analogous to this location. Also, it says to then go to " http://www.example.com/phpBB3/install/" and I don't have one of those either... Do you know where I might put automod files within my db so that it's functional and I can initiate the install? Thanks again

read this to understand better if you want to do it manually.

with template inheritance you install for prosilver like normal then apply the RELEVANT change to your other active styles. with automod you can do this automatically by clicking in the installed mod and at the bottom it has an option to apply it to other styles. Manually? it is usually a case of cloning over ( i.e copy and paste) any overall_header/footer.html edits the mods needs to your other styles.
the thing about automod is that it relies on using the FIND to apply edits, other mods can change those finds so you get errors when installing a mod.
