ThemeParkPanel:

Requirements:

• A webhosting with:

  • 1 MYSQL database

  • An SMTP mail server

  • Minimal PHP version 7.2 (support)

• A minecraft server with:

  • The ThemePark plugin

  • The ThemeParkConnector plugin

You can install the panel in 2 ways. If you have your own VPS or your webhosting has SSH access, follow these steps. Otherwise, follow the steps for webhosting without SSH access.

Installation with SSH Access support:

1. Connecting to SSH

This step is different for every webhosting. I'm going to follow the way for Vimexx, but you have to contact your Webhosting to find out the way to do it for you.

If you are using Windows, you need PuTTY or an equivalent program to connect to the SSH. You can download it at https://www.putty.org/​

2. Connecting to FTP

You need to install Filezilla or WinSCP to send the files to your webhosting. You need to install the Client. At Filezilla, click on the icon on the left (Site Manager), and click on New Site. Then fill in your credentials of the FTP server and click on Connect.

In your FTP, select your domain and put the files of the SSH ZIP into your FTP.

3. Setting up the database:

Go to the homepage of DirectAdmin and go to MYSQL Management. Click on Create new Database and fill in the data. Also, save this data somewhere, because you need it later.

4. Editing the config and running installation

Run the following commands:

cp .env.example .env
nano .env

Then change all the settings in that file. Change the APP_URL to the url of your panel, and STORE_URL to the url of your store.

At DB_ you can change the database credentials of the database you created.

For the MAIL_ settings you have to create a mail account, and then lookup the SMTP server from your hosting. Ask your hosting for support if you are unable to do this.

Then run the following commands to install your panel and create your database:

composer install --no-dev --optimize-autoloader
php artisan key:generate --force
php artisan migrate --force

Now your database is ready for usage.

5. Installing the theming ZIP

Now install the Theming ZIP. Just unzip it, upload, and override if required.

6. Rewriting users to your panel (public folder):

Because of safety reasons, all the files who are needed for users aren't included in the main map, but in the /public folder. You have to redirect the users to this folder, by using the .htaccess file. It's included in the ZIP, but you HAVE TO change it.

Create a .htaccess file in the panel main folder, and put this into it:

.htaccess
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    <IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
        Options -MultiViews
    </IfModule>
    
    RewriteEngine On
    
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
    RewriteRule ^ ^$1 [N]
​
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (\.\w+$) [NC]
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ public/$1 
​
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteRule ^ server.php
</IfModule>

Installation without SSH Access:

1. Setting up the database:

Go to the homepage of DirectAdmin and go to MYSQL Management. Click on Create new Database and fill in the data. Also, save this data somewhere, because you need it later.

Now you have to upload the SQL-file (which can be found in the Non-SSH zip), so that the plugin can upload his attractions. Open your database with PHPMyAdmin, and go to Import in the menu, and then choose the SQL-file at "File to import:". Then click on the Start button. Now it's uploaded.

2. Installing the panel to your webserver:

You need to install Filezilla or WinSCP to send the files to your webhosting. You need to install the Client. At Filezilla, click on the icon on the left (Site Manager), and click on New Site. Then fill in your credentials of the FTP server and click on Connect.

In your FTP, select your domain and put the files of the Non-SSH ZIP into your FTP.

Now copy the .env.example file and rename it to .env.

Then you have to change the settings in the .env file. Change the APP_URL to the url of your panel, and STORE_URL to the url of your store.

At DB_ you can change the database credentials of the database you created.

For the MAIL_ settings you have to create a mail account, and then lookup the SMTP server from your hosting. Ask your hosting for support if you are unable to do this.

3. Installing the theming ZIP

Now install the Theming ZIP. Just unzip it, upload, and override if required.

4. Rewriting users to your panel (public folder):

Because of safety reasons, all the files who are needed for users aren't included in the main map, but in the /public folder. You have to redirect the users to this folder, by using the .htaccess file.

Create a .htaccess file in the panel main folder, and put this into it:

.htaccess
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    <IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
        Options -MultiViews
    </IfModule>
    
    RewriteEngine On
    
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
    RewriteRule ^ ^$1 [N]
​
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (\.\w+$) [NC]
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ public/$1 
​
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteRule ^ server.php
</IfModule>

ThemeParkPanelPlus:

The installation of the Plus panel is very simple! Just extract all the files of the ThemeParkPanelPlus ZIP into the main folder of the panel.

Then go to routes/web.php and add this at the bottom of the file:
