Installing the Program

After purchasing our software we will email you a copy of it in zip format, along with your unique license key.

1. Unzip the software files on your local computer, preserving the directory structure.

2. Using an FTP Client, log into your server and attempt to locate a CGI Directory. These directories are often named /cgi-bin/, /cgi-local/, or /scripts/. It may be one level above your regular Web directory.

3. Using your FTP Client, create a new directory outside of your CGI Directory. Make sure you place the new directory in the same directory as your top-level home page is located (index.html). Call the new directory /nm/. Upload the following directories and their files into the new directory:
  -  /nm/images/
  -  /nm/publish/
  -  /nm/uploads/


4. Now create a directory within your CGI Directory called /nm/. If you do not have a CGI Directory, as discussed in Step 2, use the same directory you created in Step 3. Upload the following directories:
  -  /nm/exec/
  -  /nm/data/
  -  /nm/templates/


5. If you are using a Unix Server, you will now need to set File Permissions on some of the files and directories you uploaded. You can normally change Permissions with your FTP Client.

  -  chmod 755  /nm/exec/*.*   (all files in this directory)
  -  chmod 777  /nm/data/   (the directory itself)
  -  chmod 777  /nm/data/*.*   (all files in this directory)
  -  chmod 777  /nm/publish/   (the directory itself)
  -  chmod 777  /nm/uploads/   (the directory itself)
