How do i install the software?

Follow the steps below to install the application on your hosting server.

1. Create a Database

Before starting the installation, create a new empty MySQL database and a database user with full privileges.

If you are using cPanel

  1. Log in to cPanel.
  2. Open MySQL® Databases.
  3. Create a new database.
  4. Create a new database user and set a strong password.
  5. Add the user to the database and assign All Privileges.
  6. Save the following details, as you will need them during installation:
    • Database Host (usually localhost)
    • Database Name
    • Database Username
    • Database Password

If you are using Plesk

  1. Log in to Plesk.
  2. Go to Websites & Domains → Databases.
  3. Click Add Database.
  4. Create a new database and database user.
  5. Save the following details:
    • Database Host (usually localhost)
    • Database Name
    • Database Username
    • Database Password

2. Extract and Upload the Package

Extract the codecanyon_XXXXXXXX.zip archive. You can do this in one of two ways:

  • Extract it locally on your computer and upload all extracted files to your server, or
  • Upload the ZIP file directly to your hosting panel (cPanel or Plesk) and extract it on the server.

Then upload (or extract) the contents of the codecanyon_XXXXXXXX folder to your web server:

  • In your domain’s document root (e.g. public_html for cPanel or httpdocs for Plesk), or
  • In a subdirectory if you want the application installed under a specific path.

3. Start the Installer

Open your browser and navigate to:

http://your-domain.com/install/start.php

Or, if installed in a subdirectory:

http://your-domain.com/subdirectory/install/start.php

Replace your-domain.com and subdirectory with your actual domain and installation path.

4. Complete the Installation

Follow the installation wizard and enter the database credentials created in Step 1.

Once completed, your application will be ready to use.
