Contents > Setting up website



You may require the help of a web designer for this part

Setting up your website has 5 parts.. These are actually VERY simple to do - and if you dont feel comfortable doing this - simply give these instructions to someone who does.

Detailed information on what to do:

1 - click on the link and you will download a ZIP file. This file contains all the files required. Extract this file to a folder on your computer.

2 - open booking.php using notepad on windows ( accessories/notepad ). Move down to the line

$websitepassword="YOURPASSWORD";

change the YOURPASSWORD ( make sure you leave the rest of the line alone - including the quotes ). Make this password cryptic ( use random numbers and letters ). Write the new password down. You will need this for the imReserve program. You also need to change the website address...

$returnwebsite="http://www.imReserve.com";

Change www.imReserve.com to your website address.

3 - Using a program like FileZilla ( a free FTP program ) connect to your website. You can see instructions on how to do this in FileZilla. When connected, browse to your website and create a new folder ( e.g. booking )

4 - Upload all the files from the ZIP that you downloaded into this folder. Note: you have to make the folder called availability (and files inside the folder) writeable. instructions for this are in filezilla help. ( usually you just right click on the folder, click on FILE ATTRIBUTES and make the numeric input box 777. )

5 - Now link from somewhere on your website to your new folder/booking.php. e.g. www.yoursite.com/booking/booking.php

Thats it! - if you have any problems - please discuss in the support forum
