This part of the tutorial contains the following steps:-

1. Editing php files
> On your server's public_html folder, find config.new.php

>Right click on it and click View/Edit. You'll find this:-


<?
$DBHost = "localhost";
$DBDatabase = "responso_arroa4";
$DBUser = "responso_";
$DBPassword = "rc0000";
define("SITE_KEY","NDMTIwMyNzozE4Z6Om1hYhZ2Z2lj9uaGlHJ6d0cy5jJ1ZTb200o6dHJHVlO1ZTpjp0cncnU6VlOnRjp0cydWnVlO"); ?>


> Edit the information as follows:-
<? $DBHost = "MySQL Hostname"; $DBDatabase = "MySQL Database Name"; $DBUser = "MySQL Database Username"; $DBPassword = "MySQL Database Password"; define("SITE_KEY","NDMTIwMyNzozE4Z6Om1hYhZ2Z2lj9uaGlHJ6d0cy5jJ1ZTb200o6dHJHVlO1ZTpjp0cncnU6VlOnRjp0cydWnVlO"); ?>
> Edit config.php and connect.php in the same way and save it to your server.
> In your public_html folder, browse to includes folder.

> Find and right click on mysql.php and click View/Edit. You'll find this:-
