Preparation

Before we start with the installation, ensure you have the following requirements:

Uploading the files

If you use a shared server hosting,most likely,you have received your FTP,MySql information at activation,altough,if you have a VPS or a diffrent package of shared hosting,and you have cPanel installed you can create you FTP/MySql user inside the panel doing like in the pictures below. So, the first thing you need, is a FTP account which will be used to transfer the files that you have downloaded from codecanyon (The "Script" folder only) to your server. To do this, follow the instructions from the image below:

As you can see in the image,the first thing you have to do,is to go to the "Files" category, and select "FTP Accounts".After you did that,complete that form as you want (what username & password you want).After you do that,you can upload you all the files from "Script" folder (that you have downloaded from codecanyon) into your "public_html"/"www" folder using a FTP client, like Filezilla.If you have trouble uploading your files, try this tutorial.

Configuration

After you have uploaded the files to your server, open the "php/config.php" file with your favourite file editor, and edit the line 7, with the username you want to use, and the line 8 with the password. That`s all! Now you can access the admin panel, located at yoursite.com/admin.php.
