+ sort order (reported by Peter Sieradzki).
+ - Fixed description of function DB_count() in lib-database.php (reported by
+ jose on IRC).
- Changed the "getBent" block to test the real admin directory in case it has
been renamed (bug #762881).

+ <p>When you get an error message, please read it carefully. Even if you're not
+ familiar with PHP, it will give you a hint about what is wrong. Pay special
+ attention at the paths contained in the error message. Wrong paths are the
+ most common cause for problems.</p>

+ <p>A parse error usually hints at a typo you've made. Check the file at the
+ given line (the actual error may be in the line preceding the one mentioned
+ in the error message).</p>
+ <p>Common problems are:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>not enclosing paths in single quotes properly</li>
+ <li>missing semicolon at the end of the line</li>
+ <li>using single quotes within a string (you need to write <b>Joe's Site</b> as

+ <p><strong>Answer:</strong></p>
+ <p>The path that you've entered for the <b>$_CONF['path']</b> variable in config.php is not correct. Make sure you typed it correctly. Also make sure it uses
+ an <em>absolute</em> path, i.e. one that starts at the root of your file
+ system (and that it starts with a / under Unix/Linux or a drive letter under
+ Windows).</p>

+ <p>This is a path problem again. Check the setting for <b>$_CONF['path_html']</b>. If you did not change or rename Geeklog's <tt>public_html</tt> directory, then there's no need to change that setting at all (restore the line to its
