How to install SMF Mods on your forum

At the official website of SMF, there could be found a lot of packages for your forum. Just visit the SMF Mods page and choose the one for you, depending on your needs.

To start managing you SMF, you need to login as an administrator. You can do that from the login form at the top left corner of your forum:

SMF login

Once you have logged in with the administrator's credentials, you'll just have to click on the [admin] button.

After that on the displayed page you'll see four sections at the left side of your screen named as follows:

  • Forum Controls
  • Forum Configuration
  • Member Controls
  • Maintenance Controls

You should look for the link named "Package Manager" in the "Forum Controls" section, click on it and you'll see the change/install themes page:

To install a new package just click on the link named "[ Download New Packages ]" at the bottom of the displayed page. After that by clicking on the "Browse…" button at the displayed page, navigate to the package you've already downloaded to your local computer and click upload. Once it's uploaded you'll see a confirmation page.

To apply the package, you'll just have to click on "[ Apply Mod ]" in front of the package you've just uploaded.

Please read all the notes given in the SMF installation package to avoid any further problems.
