We are getting closer.
I ran the SQL to create the table. Now when I enabled the Smart Content plug-in, the site no longer returns a blank screen. It looks like it works OK. However, the code in the articles does not get run. It just shows as the raw tags.
I tried to re-install Smart Content 1.8.1. The install message comes back as "Installing component was successful." but also includes this message:
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /ysi/
www/html/libraries/joomla/database/database/mysqli.php on line 391
Is this an indication of more missing tables?
BTW, the Joomla version is 1.7.2. I also have ARI Data Tables installed.
