  33              <h1>Installing b2evolution from scratch</h1>
  34              
  35              <p>To install b2evolution you need a PHP/MySQL web server (see <a href="http://manual.b2evolution.net/System_requirements" target="_blank">requirements</a>). Renting a fast server from a reputable hosting company is getting cheaper every day. Check out our  <a href="http://b2evolution.net/about/recommended-hosting-lamp-best-choices.php">recommended hosting offers</a>. </p>
  36              <p class="note">Before you begin, please note that some network features of b2evolution require you to agree our simple <a href="http://b2evolution.net/about/terms.html">Terms of service</a>.</p>
  37              <p>Once you have unzipped the b2evolution distribution on your local computer:</p>
  38              <ol class="expanded">
  39                  <li>On your server, try to create a new (empty) MySQL database for b2evolution (For example, you can call it "b2evolution". The exact procedure to create a new database depends on your host/server setup. Alternatively, you can also use an existing database which b2evolution will share with existing applications.)<br />
  40                  <br />
  41                  <span class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> b2evolution will create about 25 tables in the database you select. Unless you changed the config, all these tables' names will be prefixed with evo_ . Unless you already have an application using the same prefix, this makes it safe to install b2evolution in a database shared with other applications. Your existing tables will not be affected in any way.</span></li>
  42                  <li>Upload the b2evolution files to your website.<br />
  43                  <br />
  44                  <span class="note"><strong>Note: </strong>Only the contents of the <code>/blogs</code> directory need to be uploaded to your site. If you want b2evolution to handle the homepage of your site, upload the contents of the <code>/blogs</code> folder to your website root. Otherwise, it's best to upload the files to a subdirectory of your webserver. You can keep the <code>/blogs</code> subdirectory name, but you can also choose another.<br />
  45                  </span>
  46              <br />
  47              Let's assume you install the contents of the blogs folder to <code>http://yoursite.com/yourfolder</code> ...</li>
  48                  <li>Run the installation script on your server. It is located in <code>http://yoursite.com/yourfolder/install</code> . Then, simply follow the on screen instructions.<br />
  49              <br />
  50              The installer will ask you a few questions, create required database tables and configure b2evolution for you. </li>
  51              <li>Check to make sure the new installation works.</li>
  52              <li>On production servers, it is recommended that you delete the <code>/install</code> subfolder.</li>
  53              <li>After basic install is done, there are a few <a href="http://manual.b2evolution.net/Tricky_stuff">tricky things you may need to take care of</a> (online manual).</li>
