Getting Set Up

Getting set up is quite easy. Just follow the following instructions, and we'll be done in no time.

Step One: SQL Connection

To set up your sql database, you need to alter a few things. First, open the connect.inc.php file in the "inc" folder. It should look like this:

    <?php
    mysql_connect("127.0.0.1","root","") or die("Some text here...");
    mysql_select_db("socialnet") or die("Some text here...");
    ?>

Change "127.0.0.1" to your database host. Keep the quotation marks around it. Now, change "root" and "" with the username and password for your database, again keeping the quotation marks. Finally, change "socialnet" to the name of your database. (Keeping the quotation marks).

Step Two: Creating the tables

The second step to getting set up is to create the tables. There's an easy way, and a hard way. I'll go over the easy way here.

XeNet Alpha 1.2

As of June 11, I've made an installer to install all files to the selected directory, however you still need to add the tables to the database. It's come to my attention that the users.sql file does NOT work. So, as an alternative, I've made a video on how to go about creating the database in the easiest possible way. Don't expect the fix to be coming soon, as it's not all that high on the list of priorities. I've also created a favicon, which looks the same as the project icon. Two final notes. One: There's a new chrome theme that I've created to match the current design. And, last but not least, below is a button to download the XeNet installer. It's labeled as the XAMPP installer, but that's just because the default install directory is C:/xampp/htdocs. Have fun, much more to come!

XeNet Alpha 1.2.1

user.sql has been fixed. It was a small syntax error: a missing semicolon. You can now create the tables the same way that is described above.
