Quick Setup Guide
This guide is intended for quick setup. If you want a more detailed version, check out the Setup & Installation document.
Uploading Files
- First locate the core files in the folder: core_files/core.zip and extract them.
- Upload the files to your main web directory. A sub folder is fine too.
- Modify the file: application/config/config.php and edit the following code with your own URL to the system:
$config['base_url'] = 'http://www.example.com/';
- Modify the file: application/config/database.php with your database settings:
$db['default']['hostname'] = 'localhost'; $db['default']['username'] = 'your_username'; $db['default']['password'] = 'your_password'; $db['default']['database'] = 'database_name';
- Import the SQL file core_files/database.sql to the database you specified in the above settings.
- Run the install file on your website. This URL is usually: http://www.example.com/install/
- Alternative install URL: http://www.example.com/index.php/install/
- Delete the file application/controllers/Install.php after.
