Installing plugins for PHPDevShell

From PHPDevShell

Jump to: navigation, search

Installing plugins is generally the same for all third party plugins, except where the developer of a plugin explicitly gave additional information.

You obviously need a running PHPDevShell, see http://phpdevshell.org/node/7 for installation instruction.

Follow these steps to install plugins;

  1. Download plugin.
  2. Extract plugin from archive, the extracted plugin folder will have a clean name after extraction like "MyPlugin" with all plugin files and folder inside that folder.
  3. Copy the complete extracted plugin folder to plugins/ within your PHPDevShell installation directory.
  4. Login to your PHPDevShell installation and browse to System Management -> System Admin -> Plugins Admin.
  5. Click on Install Plugin next to the plugin you just downloaded and copied.

Great, that is it, new menus and databases gets created during installation and this is basically all you have to do to install a new plugin. You might need to follow additional instructions from the plugin author.
