HOW TO INSTALL ILANCE
~~~~~~~~~~~~
STEP 1
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Upload all files to your web space
~~~~~~~~~~~~
STEP 2
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Rename ./functions/core.config.inc.php.dist to core.config.inc.php
Rename ./functions/connect.inc.php.dist to connect.inc.php
~~~~~~~~~~~~
STEP 3
~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Edit server paths and document depth in /functions/core.config.inc.php (replace xxx's)
- Edit database connection details in /functions/connect.inc.php (replace xxx's)
~~~~~~~~~~~~
STEP 4
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Run the web based installer by pointing to: http://www.yourdomain.com/install/installer.php.
Go through all steps starting at step 1.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
STEP 5
~~~~~~~~~~~~
At some point in time a member will upload an attachment, to allow attachment uploads you must set a few folders to the correct read/write permission. Do this by CHMOD 777 to the following:
./path/to/ilance/uploads/ (where attachments are stored)
./path/to/ilance/uploads/attachments/*.*
./path/to/ilance/cache/ (where language cache and style sheet files will reside)
~~~~~~~~~~~~
STEP 6
~~~~~~~~~~~~
You must now verify your image creation in php support by trying to register as a new member. Once you view page 1 (after the date and birth input), at the very bottom you *should* see a custom generated image with 4 to 5 random characters. If this image is not displaying, visit your AdminCP > Settings > Registration (tab) to disable registration security image support until you can modify your php installation build to support functions in php such as createimagefrompng(), etc. For more information about this error on your server, contact your hosting company.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
STEP 7
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once installation is complete, please REMOVE the entire ./install/ folder from your web site. This will prevent guests, search engines and the likes from reaching your new installation screen ultimately causing a complete database disaster (ie: fresh installation)
~~~~~~~~~~~~
STEP 8
~~~~~~~~~~~~
You will need to update the ./images/default/logo.gif file within your images to match
the logo of your own. The dimentions of this logo file is as follows:
Width: 129px by Height: 57px. However you may specific a smaller or larger size as desired.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Languages Other than English
~~~~~~~~~~~~
For marketplaces that will run in language set other than the default English, there is a few things to remember:
1. If you create for example, German, take the first three characters "ger" and do the following:
DUPLICATE: ./functions/core/xml/admin_nav[eng].xml
INTO: ./functions/core/xml/admin_nav[ger].xml
DUPLICATE: ./functions/core/xml/client_nav[eng].xml
INTO: ./functions/core/xml/client_nav[ger].xml
2. Proceed to Translate the [ger] files you've duplicated above. You can create your special encodings within these files as well. The results will be presented in your marketplace.
Failure to do this process will result in blank menu navs for the new language you create in the admin control panel.
