Installing the MAS
("MAS" short for Mysidia Adoptables Script)
So, some users find installing the MAS quite difficult, and at first, I had no clue, but I spent 3 days to explore and figure things out (I have no idea on coding so that's why I spent ages). Because I'm that kind :D I'm going to help you install MAS so you won't have to waste your time, this tutorial is aimed directly for 000WebHost. So if you are installing MAS to a different site host, there may be some different steps to this, so just adapt it to your host. 1. Download the MAS Check the announcements, and click the latest thread on the script, and download the ZIP file. 2. Unzip it Right click on the file and click "Extract All". 3. Login to 000WebHost Register if you haven't already. 4. Create a site If you haven't already of course. 5. Go to the Control Panel of the site Go to "List Accounts" and click on "Go to CPanel". 6. Access the MySQL section Click the image: 7. Create a new database and user These details could be anything you like. When you click "Create Database", KEEP THE PAGE UP, don't go to a different page, keep it up! 8. Download File Zilla Download File Zilla because the 000WebHost uploader is dodgy and misses files when you select them. 9. Install and open File Zilla Once you have opened File Zilla, at the top there is a form which says "Host", "Username", "Password" and "Port". 10. Go back to the tab/window that you have your MySQL Database details on Fill the form in with those details, ignore the "Port" field and click "Quickconnect". 11. Once connected You will see a box on the left side, open the MAS unzipped file up, and enter the "adoptables" folder. Select ALL files INSIDE the "adoptables" folder and double click into "Public_html" on the other box at the right. And then DRAG the selected files from the left box to the right box. 12. Go back to 000WebHost CPanel And click on "File Manager": 13. Click on "Public_html" You will find all the files transferred (if your transfer has finished, check File Zilla application). Find "default.php" and DELETE it. 14. Click on "inc" Check the box next to "config.php", and click the CHMOD button, type in "777" and click the green tick. You have just changed the permissions to config.php. 15. Click the blue back arrow And then click "Up" and click on "picuploads". 16. Check the boxes next to "gif", "jpg" and "png" And CHMOD them to 777. 17. Click the blue back arrow Click "Up", and then click on "inc". 18. Open a new tab/window And type in this: http://yoursite.something.com/install/index.php Change "http://yoursite.something.com/" to your site's address. And click enter. 19. Follow the steps When it says you have successfully installed it, go back to the File Manager and check the box next to "config.php", CHMOD it to 644. And then click the back arrow, "Up" and check the box next to "install"... DELETE the folder. ----------------------------------------------- Okay, time for x10hosting tutorial :3 1. Download the MAS script View the announcements and find the latest version and download the ZIP version. 2.

Did you specify the correct database server? It is not localhost in 000webhost.com

Yes, I have it that way, and I'm at installation. Just found the problem - the files needed were in a seperate folder, not public_html. It's fine now :)

Alright, glad it works for you. I will see if I can get hypercam so that video tutorials can be made in future, possibly after Mys v1.2.0 is out.
