OrbitFAQ Installation Guide
---------------------------
The installation of OrbitFAQ is quite simple.
1. Upload the orbitfaq folder/files to the desired web space.
2. Run the {orbitfaq}/setup/clean_orbitfaq.sql script using phpMyAdmin or something similar.
3. Set the following directories/files with writable access;
{orbitfaq}/setup
{orbitfaq}/setup/*
{orbitfaq}/skins/{allskins}/skins_c (default is installed with this package)
{orbitfaq}/orbitfaq/skins/admin/skins_c
4. Access the page by pointing your browser to your url
e.g. http://www.domain.com/orbitfaq/
5. Setup will be triggered, follow the steps and a config.inc.php file will be created.
6. The setup will attempt to copy the config.inc.php file to its appropriate place
{orbitfaq}/incs however most times this will fail. If so then manually copy the file
from {orbitfaq}/setup (this should be renamed to setup_YYYYMMDDHHMMSS but again may not be.
7. Now you can login using the default demo@domain.com/password combination.
8. Go to the Administration Panel and start adding your FAQs, Categories, Users, Groups and Admins! Enjoy!!
