Installing Fanupdate
This tutorial was written 100% by Kathleen @ strobelyts.com.

Want to start blogging about your life, website and other things? Well learn to download & install fanupdate and you can! ;D

1. Click here to download Fanupdate. Please Download and extract all files.

2. Your going to need a MYSQL database in order to use fanupdate. So go to your Control Panel. (I Use CPanel)
If your have a subdomain, you'll most likely have to contact your host asking for a mysql database. So to create a database&username:

Click MySql Data bases icon.

Than Create the database 'fanupdate' & Create Database

Than Create the database username 'blog' & make a password for it & Create User

Than Add Users to database. Be Sure To 'Check' the box with all privileges.

3.Open the file blog-config.php in notepad. Edit the file like so:

// ------------->ADMIN VARIABLES
$fanupdate['admin_username'] = 'YOUR USERNAME HERE';
$fanupdate['admin_password'] = md5('YOUR PASSWORD HERE');

// ------------->DATABASE VARIABLES
$fanupdate['dbhost'] = 'localhost';
$fanupdate['dbuser'] = 'YOUR DATABASE USERNAME';
$fanupdate['dbpass'] = 'YOUR PASSWORD HERE';
$fanupdate['dbname'] = 'YOUR DATABASE NAME HERE';

4. Save file.

5. Create a folder called 'fanupdate' on the root files of your domain. Upload all fanupdate files into the folder you just created.

6. Now go to: www.yoursite.com/fanupdate/install.php If you put in your blog settings correctly, it will bring you to a page where you will have to fill in some boxes to get started using fanupdate. If it says error, you filled out your blog settings wrong. Go back and fix.

7. Yay, Now fanupdate is successfully installed. All you have to do now is start blogging. Once you have written one entry, you can go to http://yoursite.com/fanupdate/get-code.php and get the display code. Paste it on your index page. And thats it!

To continue blogging just go to www.yoursite.com/fanupdate/index.php (:
