Hi Bill, for some reason I can't reply to your original forum post, so I hope you see this!

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function mysqli_init()

means that PHP can't find the mysqli_init() function, which only exists if the MySQLi extension is installed and enabled in your PHP environment.

Check if the MySQLi extension is installed - download the attached phpinfo.php file and upload it to your server. Access the page in the browser, then search the page for "mysqli".

If you don’t see it, the extension is not installed or not enabled.

You may need to ask your server supplier to enable it, or let me know if you need help. Once activated, check the phpinfo page again.

You should remove the phpinfo.php file once you've finished with it for security purposes.
