In-Portal Installer checks through the system folders and files that require write permissions (777) to be set in order to run successfully In-Portal on your website.

In case if you see a Failure notice saying that In-Portal Installation cannot continue until all permissions are set correctly please continue reading below.

Permissions can be set by using FTP program or directly in shell running "chmod" command. Please refer to the following guide to learn how to set permissions using your FTP program. In case if you have access to shell in your account you can simply run fix_perms.sh files located in /tools folder or do

   # chmod -R 777 ../system ../themes ../system/config.php

Security reasons you will be asked to change permissions back to 755 on /system/config.php file and root / folder of In-Portal on the last step of this installation process!

]]>
Adjust Basic Configuration settings on this step.

Once your In-Portal is installed you can login into Admin Console to change these and other settings. The Configuration section is located in main navigation menu.


Additional Recommendations:

1. Use Cron (UNIX/BSD/Linux) or Task Scheduler (Windows) to run Regular Events in your In-Portal.
It's highly recommended to setup your cron to run every minute so all system events that are enabled will run in the background based on their schedule. These events can be managed in Admin Console via Configuration -> Website -> Agents section.

In-Portal cron file is located in /tools/cron.php folder and can be setup using hosting Control Panel or manually. In Plesk or CPanel interfaces use dialog to add a new cron job and specify the following (use correct paths)
   /absolute/path/to/bin/php -f /absolute/path/to/in-portal/tools/cron.php

2. Adjust Agents
As was explained in the previous recommendation there is a Configuration -> Website -> Agents section where you can control Events triggered by the system. These events do their job to cleanup the data, old image files, check the data integrity, RSS feeds and other processes required for your In-Portal to run efficiently. We do recommend to review and enable/disable these events based on your website needs.

3. Set Mail Server
It's recommended to review and adjust your mail server settings once your In-Portal is up and running. This can be done in Admin Console under Configuration -> Website -> Advanced section.

We strongly recommend carefully reviewing and adjusting all settings under Configuration -> Website section!

Selected theme will be used as a default in your In-Portal website.

You can manage your themes in Admin Console under Configuration -> Website -> Themes section.

In-Portal Installer performs final security checks on this step.

1. Write Permissions Check - checks whether critical In-Portal files are open for the outside world and can be used by hackers to attack your websites. You won't be able to continue until you correctly set these permissions!

2. Ability to Execute PHP in Writable Folders - checks if hackers can save and execute PHP files in your /system folder used for the uploads.While it's recommended to adjust these settings you can continue In-Portal Installation without changing them.

3. Webserver PHP Configuration - additional suggestions how to make your website even more secure. While it's recommended to adjust these settings you can continue In-Portal Installation without changing them.
