To install the aplication follow these steps:

Upload the files

• Unzip your download (our script) on your computer. And notice that there is a folder called "Script". The content of this folder is what we will upload to the server.
• Upload to your server, in a folder or in the root directory, all the files that are in the "Script" folder of our script.
• Create a database on your server and have the information at hand.

Configuration required on the server

• Make sure that the server is enabled module "rewrite_module". This is necessary for the creation of friendly urls. This will ensure the proper functioning of the website.

Start the installer

• Once you have uploaded the script files on the server, and you already have the information in the database, you execute the following URL:

  https://www.yourdomain.com/install

• Follow the steps indicated, and voila!
• Note: If you have already installed the script, be careful to use the installer again. Because, if you already have a previous database with information, the installer will delete the tables and generate them again with blank information. Don't forget that after installation you will have to delete the "install" folder on the server.

The application is divided into the following folders:

• data

The fastest way to have your own theme, is duplicating a folder theme and then editing the files it contains.

First edit the file theme.php:

<?php
$current_theme	= (object) array (
    'name'		=> 'Default Theme',
    'version'		=> '1.0',
    'description'	=> 'Default Theme for iSocial.',
    'author_name'	=> 'M Code Developer',
    'author_url'	=> 'https://www.mcodedeveloper.com',
    'author_email'	=> 'devs@mcodedeveloper.com',		
);	
?>

The line to edit to have a thme with other name is:

'name' => 'Default theme',

Then proceed to edit the CSS file css.css (file located in the folder CSS) to give the desired look.

Folder Languajes

The folder where the language files is: system/languages/

Each language has a folder, for example es (spanish), en (english).
