📦 Stackposts Installation Guide – Vesion 9.0.0

Follow this step-by-step guide to install Stackposts on your server.

🔻 1. Download Installation Files

Download the Stackposts installation package from your purchase source (e.g., CodeCanyon). Unzip the package and upload the contents to your web server’s root directory (or subdomain folder).

🌐 2. Create a Domain and Point to Server

Set up a domain or subdomain and point it to your server’s IP address. This will be the primary access point for your application.

Example:

📋 3. System Requirements

Before proceeding with the installation, make sure your server meets these minimum requirements:

• PHP ≥ 8.2.2

• MySQL (with pdo_mysql)

• PHP Extensions:

  • PDO

  • Mbstring

  • Fileinfo

  • OpenSSL

  • Tokenizer

  • XML

  • Ctype

  • JSON

  • BCMath

  • GD

• storage/ and bootstrap/cache/ folders must be writable

🔒 4. Set Up SSL

Secure your domain using HTTPS. This can be done via:

• Let’s Encrypt (recommended for free SSL)

• Paid SSL certificates (via your hosting provider)

Ensure the SSL certificate is correctly installed before starting the installer.

🧩 5. Create a Database

Use your hosting panel or MySQL access to create a new database for Stackposts.

You will need:

• Database name

• Database username

• Database password

• Host (usually localhost)

⚙️ 6. Nginx Configuration (Optional)

If you’re using Nginx, update your site configuration file to include:

# Installer
location /installer {
    try_files $uri $uri/ /installer/index.php?$args;
}

# Laravel
location / {
    try_files $uri $uri/ /public/index.php?$args;
}

Restart Nginx after saving the configuration.
