URL to your eFiction:Version of eFiction: 3.2.1Have you bridged eFiction, if so with what?: attempted to bridge with smf 1.1.2 but have fatal errorVersion of PHP: can be found out from your hostVersion of MySQL: can be found out from your hostHave you searched for your problem: (yes/no) yes and found similar error messages but not a solution that works for meIf so, what terms did you try:State the nature of your problem: Copy and paste any errors you are receiving.Do you have a test account for us? no as I can't get into efiction at all!Hello,I have an existing smf forum, and today I installed successfully efiction 3.2.1 I created a new database for efiction and a new user and then shared users between my smf forum and efiction databases. They do not share a database, as I do not want to make any changes to my smf database in case somewhere down the line I want them separate. (also I am unsure of how to do this and would prefer not to mess about with it)Everything worked in efiction until I tried to follow the instructions for bridging efiction to the smf forum.Efiction is in /public_html/efictionsmf forum is in /public_html/forumI changed the database table and path info in queries.php after moving the files from bridge to other folders as per readme file.The error I have is:A fatal MySQL error was encountered.Query: SELECT * FROM smf_members as author LEFT JOIN fictionfanfiction_authorprefs as ap ON ap.uid = author.ID_MEMBER WHERE author.ID_MEMBER = '1'Error: (1046) No database selectedI don't know what this means or how to fix it. I have searched the forum and seen similar errors but no solution that works for me.Any help appreciated.Thanks

Right, sorry. Thanks for catching that. I did leave out a critical "don't".

Anyway... I fixed it myself. It was because it was bridged to smf. I unbridged it, installed the challenges, and bridged it again and it was fine.
