Need Help With Cutenews

[ASR1405241491 0]

Well i thought that Ive seen so many people asking for help with cutenews so i decided to make something for you all to have a look at before you ask for help without even trying.

What you will need:
Hosting (This doesn't work if you don't have hosting which doesn't support php)
Cute News
An FTP program

ok, now that we have the things we need, we can upload to our server. Please not that that will NOT work if you are using most free hosts e.g. Free Webs however payed hosting (i recomend http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/) will support php which enables you to do this. OK, here we go

1. Unzip cutenews. If you are using windows XP this will happen automatically, when the folder opens makesure you copy the folder inside the zip file to the desktop or the folder where you store your website.

2. Open the FTP program (Core FTP) and it should look like this:


3. Fill in all the information that came with your welcome e-mail when you bought your hosting.

4. Your FTP interface should now look somthing like this:


5. What you now have to do is drag the cute news folder (you will have to find it first) from the left to the right.

6. When that has finished you may close the FTP program

NOTE: MAKE SURE YOU UPLOAD TO PUBLIC_HTML!!!

7. Go to your hosting account and Log in, then go to the folder called cutenews

8. Now what we must do is CHMOD the files, which basically gives us permission to use cutenews and change it properties. To do this click the file and then choose "change permissions" we will do this to all the files in the"data" folder. See below:


9. ALL the files under the data section MUST be changed so as the numbers say 777

10. Now you must go to http://ww38.yoursite.com/cutenews/config.php and fill in all the details.

11.

To add news to cutenews just go to:
http://ww38.yoursite.com/cutenews/index.php

To See the News go to:
http://ww38.yoursite.com/cutenews/show_news.php

If you would just like to have the news in an iFrame just use this code:


<iframe src="/cutenews/show_news.php"
width="580" height="518" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0"
hspace="0" vspace="0" frameborder="0" scrolling=yes name="iframe">



however if you want it put on you page add this code where you would like the news to go and save the whole page as "whatever.php":



<?PHP
include("path/to/show_news.php");
?>




You may now continue to add news and change the look of the news boxes.
