5. Adding plugins
6. Adding skins



1. Introduction
---------------
The latest version of b2evolution can be found on the project site:
http://b2evolution.net

Once b2evolution is installed and configured, it is always a good idea to
restrict access to the "install" folder, located at
/usr/share/b2evolution/install.
These restrictions can be assured by a .htaccess file. It can be for example :

<Limit Get Post>
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from 127.0.0.1
Allow from another_trusted_host
</Limit>

Note that after an update, the "install" folder will be necesarry, in order to
upgrade the database.


2. Configuring your webserver to access your blog
--------------------------------------------------
Once the blog is installed, you may need to setup an alias or to configure a
virtual host in your webserver.
An example of configuration file defining an alias to access your blog can be
found here : /usr/share/doc/b2evolution/extras/b2evolution.conf.

In a simple situation, if you want your blog to be reachable at :
http://mydomain/blog, you can simply edit this file, replacing /b2evolution by
/blog in the Alias directive.
Once this file fits your needs, simply copy it in your webserver configuration
directory (eg. /etc/apache/conf.d/) and restart it (/etc/init.d/apache
restart).


3. Modifying the database parameters
------------------------------------
By default, a user "b2evolution" is created and all the tables are in the
"b2evolution" database.
If you want to modify one of these values, do it and then reflect the changes
in /etc/b2evolution/_config.php.


4. Modifying the blog address
-----------------------------
By default, the blog is reachable at the url you provided during the
configuration process.
If you want to change it, simply run "dpkg-reconfigure b2evolution" and this
will be done automatically.
You may only have to modify the configuration of your webserver. You can find
an example of the configuration file in
/usr/share/doc/b2evolution/extras/b2evolution.conf.


5. Adding plugins
-----------------
Plugins can be added by simply putting them under /usr/share/b2evolution/plugins/.


6. Adding skins
---------------
New themes are also installed simply by extracting them under /usr/share/b2evolution/skins/
