/\-/\ C C ; >.^ /<= \ / ;-. +++++ \ \ __ / kiki --- a tiny homepage construction set Thank you for purchasing the full/registered version of kiki, and keeping the dream of a small web alive! :D A kind reminder that this registered version is *not* shareware and can't be distributed. This is your personal piece of software to use and keep. With great gratitude and kindness, -vga256 ==Instructions== Before installing: kiki requires the "mbstring" extension to be enabled in your php configuration. Use the command "php -m" to see if the extension is active. (macOS/linux/unix) must first install via package manager: e.g. (macOS) sudo port install php82-mbstring (linux) apt-get install php8.2-mbstring Afterwards, you may need to uncomment the extension in php.ini to activate it. 1. Decompress the kiki archive to wherever you want the homepage to appear on your web hosting server. (If generating a static site, put it in a convenient spot on your computer.) e.g. /~user/public_html/index.php 2. With a text editor, make any changes you'd like to settings.php. All of the settings can be left at default, or changed to your taste. 3. Load up your site in your browser to see a sample homepage. 4. Modify your homepage by editing /pages/home.bug 5. Add a few more posts by copying the template /layout/page_template.bug to a new file in /pages/, and filling it in with your thoughts. 6. Learn how to use the bug markup language by reading /help/bug_syntax 7. Change the colours, fonts and layout of your pages by modifying style.css in /themes/ 8. Refer to the on-line interactive documentation at url /~user/public_html/help/start in easy permalinks mode, or /~user/public_html/index.php?page=help/start in classic permalinks mode. Happy homepaging!
