Are you trying to use MODs created to be EasyMOD compatible and compatible with your forum? I haven't used EasyMOD in months, but I can see an immediate conflict there where you have gotten the error on this one. There are two FINDs right in a row, depending on which version of phpBB 2.0 you are using. This just wasn't written to auto-install. Maybe you'll have more luck with the phpBB.com validated MODs than ones on a separate site? ;)

well, the problem is the two FINDS, but not because two FINDS in a row dont' work with easymod.

they do when used to position you in the correct place to find the next FIND.

however, in this case, the M OD writer has tried to make this work for older and newer versions of phpbb.

the first FIND is only if you have version 2.0.03 and the other is if you have later versions.

this will not work in easymod.

as Darcie says, the MODs/hacks you find at phpbbhacks.com and other places are not required to run in easymod or even expected to run in easymod.

by the way, this MOD is so simple , just do it by hand and you will be done in about 2 minutes
luck,
robert

sometimes, if you have other MODs installed, then the code has been changed so easymod can't find what it is looking for.

also, if it is in the tpl files, then it can be because the style is not the same as subSilver.

all MODs are written for standard phpbb with standard subSilver. anything different may cause a find error.
