I -think- I know why your settings aren't being saved into the DB.  Check your config.php file.  See if the prefix for your settings table is there and if it's there , if it's correct.


$settingsprefix = "yourSettingTablePrefix";

So if your settings table is named provafanfiction_settings, then you should have this is your config.php

$settingsprefix = "prova";

Verify you config.php is correct, if not, change it, then save that, upload it to your efiction folder on your domain, overwriting the existing file.  Then access your Settings in the Admin panel, change a few things and see if that works. 

Efic 3.0+ allows you to have a separate prefix for your _settings table than the rest of your archive..for a lil added security if I'm not mistaken.

However, this is what is stored in my database:

As you can see, my settings are missing.

That's the default data in the structure tab of phpmyadmin.  It is NOT the data in the database.  Click on the browse tab to look at the information that's actually in the database.  Your data IS in the database. It may not be updating correctly, but the original data IS in the database.  Otherwise NOTHING would load.

Among other reasons. It also makes bridging slightly easier.

The config file is ok.

I know that. I posted that shot because those are the same data I have in the table (and I checked with the browse tab). They have been recorded only after updating 5/6 times.
