Installing Pligg on Windows

It's quick-and-easy to installing Pligg on Windows. Installing Pligg on your local computer is a great option for testing and developing your Pligg site before moving it onto a web server. Best of all it's completely free to run Pligg on your local computer so you can give it a try before having to purchase a web hosting package.

Tutorial

  1. Download and install WAMP or Xamp. If you are a Mac user you can use MAMP.
  2. Restart your computer
  3. Download Pligg CMS and move the Pligg files into a subfolder. In this example we will use the /pligg directory.
  4. Create a new MySQL database from http://localhost/phpmyadmin/
  5. Run through the Pligg readme.html file (http://localhost/pligg/readme.html) and rename the necessary files mentioned in it.
  6. Navigate to http://localhost/pligg/install/install.php to begin the installation process
  7. Run the installer using the MySQL database you recently created. The default WAMP username is "root" and the password is blank.
  8. Create an admin user and you're finished!
