Welcome to Pixel-App


First things first

  1. Create a new database. Open up the database.php file inside of the config folder and change the appropriate values. Note: if you need to prefix your tables so that they do not collide with other tables in your database, make sure you put in a value for db_prefix in the database.php file. If you leave it empty, no default prefix is used. YOU MIGHT LOSE DATA! I can not stress this enough. The pixel app installer will drop tables and create new ones with data. Use a prefix to be safe, like db_prefix = "pa_". By default Pixel-App runs out of the box in development mode. This means you see all errors plus some other stuff you can check out. So make sure that at least the development section has the correct db values.
  2. CHMOD the files directory inside of the public_html folder to be writable by the server (try 666). If you don't you can't upload files.
  3. CHMOD the cache directory inside of the pixel folder to be writable by the server (try 666). Only if you want to cache pages etc.
  4. Run the installer
  5. If everything was done right, you should be able to log in.
  6. Remove this page (index.html) to see your default homepage created with the Pages tool.
  7. Delete or rename the install.php file.
