Installing

Get Your Shiny New CMS Up And Running With Our Simple Guide.

Clone our repo to begin.

git clone https://github.com/BrentDalling1800/Timely_CMS.git

Then Generate Your Application Keys

php artisan key:generate

You should get something sorta like this

Application key [base64:pnPq9UoVZlg0nnruNdwJV5dIcDJ+sJyCYLvOT0qwVok=] set successfully.

Set Your Host

Setting your host allows users to go directly to the app. Follow up with your OS provider for instructions on completing this. DigitalOcean has a great guide for Ubuntu 16.04+ distros. Link To Guide var/www/html/[your_folder]/public

Host .conf example

The host file is very important to getting your site working properly. Use the above example for reference.

<VirtualHost *:80> 
ServerAdmin admin@test.com 
ServerName social.timelysystems.com 
ServerAlias social.timelystems.com 
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/social/public 
</VirtualHost>

Setup Your DNS With Your Provider

Contact your server provider or dns provider to setup your subdomain. In the above example, the subdomain would be social.timelysystems.com. Through DigitalOcean, this is as simple as accesssing your droplet networking, click on your domain, then click on the "A record" option. Under Hostname type in your sub domain. We used social in our above example. You will then click in the "Will Direct To" option, then select your droplet.

Setup Your Database

You need to setup your database so our CMS can grab and store content to be used.

Create the database "project" so our CMS can use the database.

Set a new user with these credentials with access to your database "project" you created. Username
