How to Install CuteNews PHP Content Management on Your Website

Ashley B
Do you own a website? So you want a place to type your blog for your website? No worries, I am here to help you. As an owner of a website myself, I was very anxious to find a trustworthy program that would be easy and not so time consuming to install. I found the perfect one. Cute news. I will teach you how easy it to install it.

Before we go on with installing Cute News you first need to make sure that you have a program that unzips files. There are several programs, but the best is WinZip. WinZip offers a free 30 day trial, and their program is very easy to use. I reccomened that you download the Winzip program, and after you are finished downloading that, you will need to go to the Cute News website and download the Zip file for the installation.

Next you will need to go to Cute News website, scroll down until you see the section called Download, and download the Zip file that they offer. After you have downloaded the file, your WinZip program should pop up on your computer screen. Once it is up, you will need to unzip the file that you just downloaded with WinZip.

After you unzip the file you just downloaded, you will need to create a new folder on your computer somewhere where you will be able to find it easy, and name the folder Cute News. Once you have Unzip the file you downloaded from Cute News, go to Actions - Extract and Extract the files into the folder you just created called Cute News.

Next you need to open up your FTP Client that you will be using. There are several FTP Clients that offer free trials, I highly reccommend CuteFTP. Once your FTP Client is open, create a new folder called Cute News in your directory, and upload all the files from the Cute News folder on your computer into the Cute News folder in your directory of your FTP Client.

Once the files have been uploaded into your folder in your directory, find the folder called Data in your Cute News folder (located in your FTP Client) and right click on the folder. Once you have right clicked, look for the CHMOD/Properties in the box and change the number to 777, and select Ok.

After you have selected Ok, double click on the Data Folder and open it. Next, you will need to select all the folders and files that are located in there, and make sure that they are all highlighted.

Finally, go to your internet browser and type in your website (http:///www.yourdomain.com/cutenews) and it will give you instructions on what to do next.

Pretty easy, huh? If you ever have any problems installing it, Cute News offers a wonderful forum on their website where people are there to assist you with anything involving installing the software, and as well as all their features.
