Don't try to install SyncData2 as Add-on for WebsiteBaker or LEPTON CMS!

The installation of SyncData2 needs only a few steps:

  • download the latest release from GitHub.
  • unzip the archive
  • create a subfolder with name syncdata on your webserver; this folder must be located in the CMS installation folder (that is, where the config.php resides)
  • copy the content of the directory /SycnData2-2.0.xx (not the directory itself!) into the directory /syncdata at your webserver
  • open the URL http://www.<domain.tld>/syncdata in your Browser
  • SyncData2 will execute automatically the setup, all needed information are gathered from the Content Management System.

SyncData is initialized

You will receive an email from SyncData2 which contains a key. Please save this key, you will need it to authorize commands your are sending to SyncData2.

.htaccess

Directory structure

<WB_/LEPTON_PATH>
    |-- config.php
    |-- modules
    |-- ... more subfolders of the CMS ...
    |-- syncdata

Please note: At the moment, this will only work if the CMS is installed into the root directory of your website. (See above.) If your CMS is installed into a subdirectory (something like http://www.<domain.tld>/wb/), you will have to edit the .htaccess file located in the syncdata directory.

By default, the .htaccess looks like:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    Options -MultiViews
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /syncdata
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteRule ^ bootstrap.php [L]
</IfModule>

If your CMS is installed in the subdirectory /wb change the RewriteBase to

RewriteBase /wb/syncdata

Next step: Configuration
