A short description of the Coppermine Photo Gallery will appear. Click on the New Installation button to proceed with the install.
In the next few steps you will have to fill in some details regarding your installation:
- The first option is selecting the domain or subdomain name under which you will be installing your Coppermine Photo Gallery. This is used only if you have more than one domain name for your account or wish to install Coppermine under a subdomain.
- The second option is the folder where you wish to install Coppermine. If you wish to install it in the root folder of your domain so it will be accessible when you type http://yourdomainname.com you should leave that field blank. If you want to install Coppermine in a folder called gallery, it will be accessible at http://yourdomainname.com/gallery.
- These two fields are the administrator username and password you are going to use for your gallery.
- You can input the name of your site here, a slogan and the e-mail address used for administration purposes of your gallery.
Once you have finished filling the details, press the Install Coppermine Gallery button.
After that, you should see a summary of the installation details made by Fantastico.
