Installation Snyopsis
|
|
.....................
|
|
|
|
Open up index_rename.php, edit the variables at the top save and upload to your root public_html / www folder.
|
|
If you're installing this in a different directory to your IPB, renamed 'index_rename.php' to 'index.php'. It's named as
|
|
such by default to ensure that you do not overwrite an existing file named the same.
|
|
|
|
|
|
INSTALLATION
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
This guide assumes that you have installed IPB in /forums/ and wish for the portal to be the first page your visitors see.
|
|
|
|
Open up index.php and edit the path to where the forums directory is:
|
|
|
|
define( 'ROOT_PATH', "./forums/" );
|
|
|
|
This is set to "forums" by default. If you had your IPB installed at http://www.domain.com/chat/ you'd need to make sure you have:
|
|
|
|
define( 'ROOT_PATH', "./chat/" );
|
|
|
|
Save the file and upload it to your root web directory folder, often called "public_html" or "www".
|
|
|
|
|
|
SETTING UP
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
Before you can use IPB Portal, you'll need to make sure you've switched it on from the ACP. If you don't do this, you may
|
|
receive PHP errors from index.php.
|
|
|
|
Simply log into your forums ACP and expand the "System Settings" sub-menu and click on "View all general settings" and then
|
|
find "IPB Portal".
|
|
|
|
That's it, you're all done!
