Install GetSimple CMS on server
I am trying to install the CMS using their installation steps. On the website, they have two ways they recommend installing (Quick install or Manual Install) I am trying to see if these steps will work through here as I cannot find a guide to installing GetSimple on InMotion. I have added below the two guides they have on their website. If able, I would prefer using the simple method because, well its simple. But after reading the guides I just cannot make sense of them. I understand you guys are not related to GetSimple but am just wondering if anyone might know how.
Quick Install / Upgrade:
1. Extract zip file to your web host
2. Visit your domain and navigate to /admin (or your gsadmin path set in gsconfig), you will be redirected to the upgrade and install scripts
NOTE: Your site will be automatically put in maintenance mode during installs or upgrades.
Manual Install Procedure:
1. Download the latest version.
2. Unzip the contents to a new folder on your local computer.
3. Upload the contents of that folder with an FTP client to your host. You can upload everything to either the root of your server, or within a subfolder or sub domain.
4. You may also need to recursively CHMOD the folder /data/ to 755 if your host doesn't set it implicitly.
5. From a web browser, navigate to the folder where you just uploaded GetSimple to. You will need to navigate to the admin subdirectory /admin. This will redirect you to an install screen. (e.g mydomain.tld/admin or mydomain.tld/path-to-get-simple/admin )
6. If you are using a custom gsadmin folder as setup in gsconfig, adjust this accordingly and remember to rename your admin folder for upgrades.
7. All fields are mandatory. Once complete, you will be asked to sign in with your newly generated random password. Additionally, your username and temporary password will be emailed to the email address you input on the installation screen.
8. After completion of the setup you should be automatically forwarded into the administration panel. If you are not, please direct your browser to mydomain.tld/path-to-get-simple/admin to sign in.
9. Once you sign into GetSimple for the first time, you will be prompted to change your password to something you might better remember.
IMPORTANT: It is also imperative that you go to Support ? Health Check to make sure that you've uploaded all necessary .htaccess files. Some folders in your installation have sensitive data and should not be accessible to outside visitors.
