Once you finish this installation method, you should get exactly the same copy of this Demo site on your server. Let's start!
- Unzip file "hot_cars_hotstart.zip" from the archive you downloaded after purchase.
- Using FTP software (such as FileZilla) upload all files and folders to your hosting space. Make sure the configuration.php file is writable (chmod it to 777 after upload).
- In browser, open address http://www.your_site_address.com/installation/index.php (change "your_site_address.com" with your URL). Click Next icon (top right).
- The installer asks you to enter details of your database server. If you don't know these details, please ask your hosting provider to give you the database connection details. On the Advanced tab, you have option to backup existing database tables (if you have any). Click Next.
- You will see the Restoration Progress message. Once it reach 100%, you may click OK.
- You are on the Site Info tab now. Under the FTP options, you may enter your hosting FTP details. This is not required, so you may leave all these fields empty. Under the Site Parameters, you can enter basic information about your website. Under the Super Administrator Settings, you should enter the administrator's password twice (don't leave it blank) and the administrator's email address. Click Next.
- Congratulations, you are done! Using FTP software delete the /installation directory from your server before accessing site.
