How would i achieve this? Tried manually setting up the config file, but whenever i load /InstallationMethods.php it resets the configurations.

Also curious if i misunderstood something. Like what do i put in "database name"? As far as i'm aware the only name my database has is the table which i assume goes under "table name".

Sorry, I may not be too much help as we haven't maintained this project for several years now but I will try my best.

If I remember correctly, when you first download the project you would want to access it VIA going to https://yourdomain.com/whatever/install/install.php which should guide you through setup. If you truly have no password then you should be able to leave it blank but having no password can be a security issue.

Database name refers to the actual database name that contains your tables. If you are using hosting through a company it may be something like "NFO_23323" or something else, they would probably create and provide the database to you and you just create tables within the database. It is hard to say. You can always try and drop by in the discord or add me on discord and see if I can help you there but as I said, it's been several years since we've looked at this so it's hard to say.

Everything checks out but i am not able to leave "Database Password" blank. I went through previously resolved issues where someone had the same problem as me, but i can't seem to recreate the solution - which was to set the configurations manually via config.php

I have added you on Discord if that makes for easier problem solving.
