All Nuke CMS Installation

To install Jinzora in a Nuke based CMS please complete the following steps:

The supported Nuke based CMSes are:
  • Postnuke
  • PHPNuke
  • MDPro
  • CPGNuke


  • Download
  • You can get Jinzora from the following

    Jinzora Downloads Page



  • Extracting
  • Once you've got Jinzora downloaded you'll need to extract the download to your web server.

    Windows: On Windows we recommend using Winzip to extract the downloaded .zip file (assuming that's the file you downloaded).

    *NIX: On *NIX you'll need to do a: tar -zxvf jinzora-X.X.tar.gz (where X.X is the version number) to extract Jinzora to the current directory (note: Jinzora will create a subdirectory called "jinzora")

    NOTE: This directory MUST be located within the /modules directory of your Nuke installation



  • Preparing
  • Windows Users: You need to make sure that the webserver has at least read access to the directory you've extracted Jinzora too (which it should unless you've changed things...)

    *NIX Users: To make installing Jinzora on *NIX easier (and for those that have SSH access) we've provided a script that will setup everything for Jinzora's installation. Please simply run:

    sh configure.sh

    Inside the Jinzora directory. This will create the necessary files and setup the proper permissions so the web based portion of the installation can complete (if you don't have SSH access don't worry, see FTP Only installation for assistance)



  • GD Libraries
  • To take advantage of the image resizing functions in Jinzora you'll need the Boutell.com GD image libraries. To install these (these are ROUGH guidelines)

    Windows Users:
    1. Download the GD Library from us (or get it on the net...)

    2. Unzip it to the exact same directory where PHP is installed (c:\php)

    3. Edit php.ini (usually in c:\winnt or c:\windows) and edit the following line:
    extension=php_gd2.dll (REMOVE the ; at the beginning of the line)

    *NIX Users: This can be a bit more complicated on *NIX, so we recommend you view the installation guide located at Boutell.com for assistance



  • CMS Integration
  • VERY IMPORTANT
    Now you'll need to create the link for Jinzora in your menu block. Each of the CMSes does this a bit differently, so please refer to your CMS on how to do this. To be clear you CAN NOT just hit index.php to access Jinzora, you must access it in the way your CMS does.

    Once you've added your link click on it and continue on...

    IF YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW TO ADD A MENU ITEM DO NOT GO PAST THIS STEP



  • Web Installer
  • Click the link that you created in your menu block to being the web based installer. The web based installer is fully documented and should describe each option that you'll have along the way.

    Once the installation is complete if you want to make changes to Jinzora please do so by using the "Enter Setup" tool located on the Tools menu within Jinzora. This will let you change every setting with Jinzora.

    At the very end the installer you'll be given the option to submit anonymous stats about your Jinzora installation. We hope you'll submit these stats so that we can do our best to make Jinzora as powerful as possible. We do not collect any personal or user specific information of any kind at this step.
