There have been install instructions with every build released. Here are the latest instructions if you need them. Instead of complaining maybe you should ask questions about certain parts you don't get.
To Install
1. Create a mysql database. Example "pligg."
Note - Have your database name, username, password, and host handy before installing
2. Rename config2.php.default to config2.php. Do the same for /libs/dbconnect.php.default.
3. Upload the files to your server.
4. chmod 755 /templates, /templates_c, /backup, /avatar/user_uploaded, config2.php, /libs/dbconnect.php and /libs/options.php
5. chmod 655 config.php
6. Open <yoursite>/install/install.php in your webbrowser.
Step 1: Make sure to read the entire page and click continue at the bottom when finished
Step 2: Fill out your database name, username, password, and host
Step 3: Make sure there are no error messages!
7. Delete your /install folder.
8. chmod 655 libs/dbconnect.php
9. Open www.<yoursite>.com
10. Make sure to look at the very top of the page for any notifications. Use the god account. Login: god - Password: 12345 to make the changes needed.
11. Change the password from 12345 to something different as soon as possible.
To upgrade
You should be able to upgrade from ANY version.
1. Make a backup copy of your config.php and config2.php file.
2. Upload new build over current build. Make sure all directories have the same chmod as mentioned in the installation instructions above.
3. Rename config2.php.default to config2.php.
4. Set permissions on config.php to 655.
5. Set permissions on config2.php and /avatar/user_uploaded to 755.
6. Run /install/upgrade.php
7. Login to pligg, go into the admin panel, and set pligg to your liking.
Note: here is currently no way to import an existing config.php file. Any manual changes to config2.php will be overwritten the next time you use the admin panel, so use t to make your changes instead of manually.
