Contentify: Installation Guide

[Shootify]

Can someone guide me how to install Contentify in a VPS running ubuntu without messing up my current websites? thanks

If you follow the documentation, you can download all the files, upload them to the desired location, create a mysql database and go to yourdirectory/install.php

http://websitex/public/install.php a precheck list came up, all are green check mark exept for

Vendor libraries installed: | No - please run "composer install"!

what should i do?
thanks

I'm on my mobile and not experienced with github so I'm copy/pasting this from another issue that looks the same

Quote:
it seems you do not have the vendor libraries in /vendor installed.

a) Install them via console: php composer.phar install
b) Download the production package and use it or copy the vendor directory https://github.com/Contentify/Contentify/releases/download/v2.3/contentify_2_3.zip

dont know... since im using ubuntu and php7 it looks that what i need to do is get on my ubuntu server and ssh with putty and run this command
Download the script: wget http://contentify.org/share/install.sh
Run the script: sudo bash install.sh

anyone ?

You could do that but it would plonk all the files into your /var/www/ directory, but I'm not a pro with Linux servers and I guess you can just relocate the folders after.

thats what i want to be sure about, i have websites running on my server, so i dont want to mess that up...so i dont know if running that command on my ubuntu server, it will get wiped out and delete my current websites! hope someone can clarify this. thanks for responding

Hello,

Download the script: wget http://contentify.org/share/install.sh

Nah, don't do this. This is only meant for fresh droplets of DigitalOcean.

[chriskonnertz]

All you need to do is to get that vendor folder.
Again:

a) Install them via console: php composer.phar install
b) Download the production package and use it or copy the vendor directory
