I am somewhat confused as I go to install phplist bridge.

<blockquote>Database setup & check Name attribute
Joomla database setup
Host Name (am using localhost)
MySQL User Name (using my WEBSITE username for this)
MySQL Password (using the WEBSITE password for this)
MySQL Database Name (using the database name)
MySQL Table Prefix (using the table prefix with the underscore)

PHPlist database setup (all the information is the same as above except using the phptlist database name)</blockquote>

Is this correct or am I using the wrong information? All help is much appreciated.

You need to check with your web host for that information.

I disagree,…. the setup determines what I need to choose.

IE…
MySQL Password ==== where I’m using the WEBSITE password for this, phplist bridge might be wanting the MySQL password for the joomla database.

MySQL Table Prefix ==== where I’m using the table prefix WITH the underscore, phplist bridge might be wanting it without the underscore.

Now how is my host going to know what phplist bridge will require for setup?

The information you have as mentioned in your first post should be fine. You need to give the details of your PHPPlist bridge installation.

Do you get any errors?
Did you fill in all information correct on step 2 of the installation process?
Did you read the documentation that follows?
If you entered that information correct you can tell me what it says on step 3 of the installation process?

I have repeatedly asked for clarification for step 2. If you will scroll up to my first couple of posts on this thread you will see what I’m trying to glean from support.

PArt one there is for Joomla and part 2 is for the PHPlist

If you have filled in as you said above you should be good to go further with the installation.
