uhm....create that table in mysql. i knew that line would mess people up. go into you admin screen in your forums and click on the database manager and then click on the SQL command link. in that form type in CREATE TABLE w3t_Total(Total INT(4) DEFAULT '0') and click on submit, then press the back button and type in INSERT INTO w3t_dTotal(Total) VALUES (0) and that should do it for ya. updating instructions.
