Ok.. I've been searching this forum for two days without luck.
I have a server with Safe Mode On (they will not change, and I can not change web hotel).

So I am on a SAFE MODE server and that's where I will have to stay.

So.. there MUST be some kind of way to install the CB plugins manually. All it should be doing is basically follow the XML file. But What do I need to do to do that

Will it be enough to copy the plugin to the CB plugins folder and then just add the tables to the database?

PLease.. I find many threads on this but no answers.
I really need help on this. There is VERY few webhotels
here that allows SAFE MODE OFF, there are sollutions to this, but what are they?

This is in the CB Profile Book XML:

OK.. So I'm on my way...
I managed to run the XML without the files.
So now I copied the files...

It shows up with th plugins but it's greyed out and marked "not installed". I've copied all the files to the right positions.

What do I do to make it know it's installed?
