It just so happens I ran phpWebSite on my server for a bit. First, do you have php and an mysql database? If you do, first extract phpWebSite to your directory. Then, go to your website. You may want to copy the files in your phpwebsite folder to your main directory(if you want it to come up when someone enters you site).
After that, you should see a screan with the phpwebsite banner. If you are running any Windows OS you will probobly see something like Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'PEAR.php' (include_path='.:../lib/pear/') in C:\PROGRAM FILES\ABYSS WEB SERVER\htdocs\test\phpwebsite-0.9.3-2-full\core\Core.php on line 30
Go to your core folder, and you will see a few lines that look like:
/*******************************************************************************************
* Do NOT edit anything above this point! *
********************************** BEGIN - USER EDIT **************************************/
/* This line is for *nix/linux environments */
ini_set("include_path", ".:" . PHPWS_SOURCE_DIR . "lib/pear/");
/* This line is for windows environments */
//ini_set("include_path", ".;".PHPWS_SOURCE_DIR."lib\\pear\\");
/* Uncomment this line to attempt to use a higher memory limit */
//ini_set("memory_limit", "8M");
/********************************* END - USER EDIT ****************************************
* Do NOT edit anything below this point! *
******************************************************************************************/
Replace that with:
/*******************************************************************************************
* Do NOT edit anything above this point! *
********************************** BEGIN - USER EDIT **************************************/
/* This line is for *nix/linux environments */
/*ini_set("include_path", ".:" . PHPWS_SOURCE_DIR . "lib/pear/");*/
/* This line is for windows environments */
ini_set("include_path", ".;".PHPWS_SOURCE_DIR."lib/pear/");
/* Uncomment this line to attempt to use a higher memory limit */
//ini_set("memory_limit", "8M");
/********************************* END - USER EDIT ****************************************
* Do NOT edit anything below this point! *
******************************************************************************************/
Once that is done, go back to your main directory. You should see the setup screan. You should only change your database name, databse username + password is needed. Check over the other info to make usre that is right too though. After that, click the link and go to the next page. There, just fill out the forms that what you want your root username +password to be.
Next you should see a page with a list of mods you can install. If you want, you can install all of them, but it may make it laggy. You can uninstall/install them anytime after this though. If you don't want to install any of them, jsut click install core only (basic needed files).
After, you will see a page that says they are installed. But wait before you do anything! Once it is done, at the bottom it will say "Go to my installation". Click that and it will bring you to your site. If all went well, it should work.
If you want to creat your own layout, it is very easy to. Just go your our mods folder, then layout, then docs. Click on theame creation. You can add content, polls, navagation anytime. It may be laggy though; there are a lot of files. _________________ New image comming soon...
