Where is the installation package?

Post by waskucity »

I am having a hard time installing this script.

I am following the directions found here:
http://wiki.tradeexpert.net/doku.php?id ... stallation

But i am unable to find the installation package.

I found the install.zip I unzipped it but there is only 1 file there called install.php

Where is the actual script and all the files? I can't find it anywhere.

Hello, this is the installation package, you need to run install.php and it will download and create all necessary files.


best regards,

Hello, waskucity.

It seems you are already half way through your installation - upload install.php into your public_html/your_TE3_directory/directory in binary mode. Chmod install.php to 755.

Next, proceed with step 5. of the installation - point your browser to http://www.yourdomain.com/your_TE3/install.php and follow the instructions you get. All the necessary files and directories will be created and copied into the indicated directory.

And don't forget to delete install.php (or chmod to 0), after the installation is completed.

Let me know if it worked this time,
Rock

I just searched the forum for the problem. It seems i need to upload the file through something called binary mode.


I'm not sure what that is. I will have to do some research.

I did it!

I use filezilla to select something called binary mode and i transfered it.

I just finished installing it. Thanks for the help everyone.


Now i can install this to play with it and see how it works.

Will i need to know advanced html and css to install this into my website?

I am looking in the admin panel and reading the manual but i am confused about how to put it into my website.

I would like to add it either to the footer or sidebar. I want anyone to sign up and they have to upload a .png image of 88x31

It will be ranked from hits coming into my website. With the most hits at number1

Can i do this or it has to be just text ?

Here is a photo of how i think it would look.

Code: Select all

I went to templates but there is not templates pre-made that i can put into my website.


Can someone direct me where the instructions are for this?


Thanks

This script is not for newbies.

It's hard to install it on a website. Looks like i might have to hire a freelancer to do it.

I got to as far as step 4 in the manual

http://wiki.tradeexpert.net/doku.php?id ... st_include


But i'm not sure in which php file to include it. I got errors or it doesn't show up.


<?php
include "toplist.html";
?>
SSI (.shtml pages)
<!--#include virtual="toplist.html" -->
