Step 1 Purchase PHPFox Neutron

First of all, you need to make sure that you have a valid PHPFox license. If you have not yet purchased PHPFox Neutron, now is the time to do so from the official PHPFox website.

 

Step 2 Download and Prepare Files

After you complete the purchase of the script you will be given a link to download the latest version.

 

Download the file to your computer and unzip its content.

 

Extract PHPFox Neutron Files

 

Install PHPFox in public_html

Let us say that your domain name is called example.com and you would like to access your new PHPFox installation directly through it. In order to achieve that, simply access your account over FTP and navigate to the public_html/ directory. You need to upload all of the contents of the upload/ directory directly within that directory on your account.

 

Install PHPFox in a subfolder

This option will allow you to install the script in a subfolder of your choice. For example, if your domain name is called example.com and you would like to access your PHPFox website via example.com/neutron/, you will need to create a new folder called "neutron" directory within the public_html/ directory of your account. Then simply upload the contents of your PHPFox script within the "neutron" directory.

 

Note that you can upload the contents of your PHPFox website to the server with your favorite FTP client or directly usign the File Manager service within your cPanel account.

 

Upload PHPFox Neutron Installation Files to Server

 

Upload Files

There are two ways of uploading your files to the server - using an FTP client, following our FTP tutorial, or uploading directly through your cPanel account > File Manager, following our cPanel tutorial.

 

Step 3 Initiate the Installation

To initiate the PHPFox installation, you need to open your favorite web browser and visit your website.

 

The first step of the web install will be to select what type of license to assign to this copy of PHPfox.

 

As you have purchased the script you will need to select Premium/Licensed.

 

Choose PHPFox Neutron Installation License

 

You will need to enter your PHPfox Neutron License ID & Key. Those were sent to you via an email directly after your purchase.

  • Database Name - Enter the name of your database
  • Database User Name - Enter the name of your user.
  • Database Password - Enter the password.

Thsi is an important step as this user will have full privileges to your website.

Note that you can change your Administrators Account credentials later via the Admin Dashboard of your website.
