EASY INSTALL

I've tried to make the installation-process as simple as possible. Make sure the database exists before running the install script.

-unzip all files into one directory (you can rename it to whatever you like)
-change CONFIG.PHP (which is in the "admin"-folder) to fit your MySQL database (MySQL username, Db-name, password, etc.) and change the other variables in CONFIG.PHP to your liking (or leave them as they are)
-upload the whole thing
-run INSTALL.PHP (by pointing to it with your browser), if everything went fine you'll see a link to step two: create an administrator. After you've created an admin username/password you can log in to the system.
-delete INSTALL.PHP and INSTALL2.PHP (important for security reasons). If you don't want users to be able to register from outside the system, you might also wanna delete JOIN.PHP which is in the "admin"-directory.
-you're done!

Note: take a good look at CONFIG.PHP, there's a lot you can customize by just changing variables! Everything is heavily commented, but here's an example: if you want to be able to change the date of each post manually, set $use_manualdate to 1 (it is set to 0 by default). This way you can also "switch on" or "switch off" comments and image upload. You can also change the skin and the language of your weblog in CONFIG.PHP


IMAGE UPLOAD (optional)
To use the image-upload function, just CHMOD the folder "upload" to 777 and you're ready to roll! If you don't want to use image-upload just change the variable $use_upload in CONFIG.PHP to 0.

Note: the thumbnail-script (which creates thumbnails on-the-fly) only works with the GD graphics module version 2. More info about that module on: http://www.boutell.com/gd/
