These instructions are for a fresh install.

If you want to convert from myLinks/webLinks please select 'Convert' from the menu.

Remember: It is always a good idea to make a database backup before installing any modules.

Fresh installation of WF-Links

  1. Upload the module to your website

    Upload the 'modules/wflinks' and 'uploads/images' folder to your {xoops-rootdirectory}.

    If you want to rename the folder 'modules/wflinks' in for example 'modules/weblinks' you have to do so before you continue with the installation.

  2. Change and verify folder permissions

    CHMOD the following folders to 777:

    {xoops-rootdirectory}/uploads/images
    {xoops-rootdirectory}/uploads/images/category
    {xoops-rootdirectory}/uploads/images/category/thumbs
    {xoops-rootdirectory}/uploads/images/flags
    {xoops-rootdirectory}/uploads/images/flags/flags_small
    {xoops-rootdirectory}/uploads/images/screenshots
    {xoops-rootdirectory}/uploads/images/screenshots/thumbs
    {xoops-rootdirectory}/uploads/images/thumbs

  3. Install the module

    Login as administrator and enter Xoops Administration page. Select System --> modules and install WF-Links

  4. Configure the module

    Most important step now will be to setup the group permissions for the module and its blocks via System --> groups
