REDAXO Forum

Hi all! On my client's page, there are some strange symbols throughout the text. She is updating the content using an RSS feed from Facebook. Anyway, I cannot figure out how to access the HTML files so that I can change the content and fix it by hand. She says that she knows nothing of a database and has no access to one. Is there a way to get to the HTML file generated through the CMS?

You need to have admin privileges to edit modules or templates in the backend. Most likely the feed is included via a template. Redaxo is definitely using a database, you'll find host, login and password in the file "master.inc.php" located in /redaxo/include/.

Thanks for the reply.

I have looked at the file master.inc, and I found this:

$REX['DB']['1']['HOST'] = "localhost";

Does this mean the database is on the client's computer? If so, how am I supposed to access that!?!

No, ist means the webserver knows the location of the database by "localhost". Your client needs to contact the hoster for database access via phpmyadmin. Then you may be able to recover the admin usernamen & password for redaxo.
