Basic Setup

  1. Unzip the installation folder into a non obvious directory on your web root directory.
  2. Create a database, and import the mysql.sql file from the shine folder.
  3. Create a user in the ‘users’ table.
  4. Open up the class.config.sample.php in /includes and enter the production and test details. (Details in the file on the differences)
  5. Done, visit the webpage and login.

Here follows some more advanced install tips and tricks.

Download Tracking Setup:

Make sure in the Applications > MyAppName > MyAppCurrentVersion the Download Location points to the actual zip file of your application. This means that sparkle update are not tracked through the downloads, but downloads from your site should be. Any download links on site or off should be sent through the downloads.php file. An example is 

www.mydomain.com/shinefolder/download.php?id=1

Where the last number this the shine ID of your application

In reality, it is nicer for the end user to have a link similar to www.mydomain.com/product/download which redirects to the shine download tracking URL.

Order Charts for non PayPal users:

If you are using FastSpring instead of PayPal to get the nice orders charts for your applications you will need to edit SQL queries in and around lines 41 and 50 of orders.php. For FastSpring users simply replace ‘PayPal’ with ‘FastSpring’.
