Update the config.php File

When the installation has completed update the config.php file to update the administrators email address to receive error notifications. You can also update the database and username details. The file is located in the Author-it Website Manager Engine folder (for example, C:\xampp\htdocs\awm\engine).

To Update the config.php File:

1. Select the config.php file in the Items to configure window and choose Launch, or navigate to the Engine folder and open the file using a text editor such as Notepad.

   Note: The Install Folder target shown in the Configuration Tool window will depend on the installation method chosen, and may differ from the screenshot.

2. Search for the ADMIN_EMAIL entry and add the administrator's email address
3. Search for the database details and update the hostname, username, password and database defaults (shown in the example) to the details used to create the database:

   $database['hostname'] = 'localhost' for example, localhost, 127.0.0.1, www.author-it.com

   $database['username'] = 'awm_site' for example, test

   $database['password'] = '1234' for example, test

   $database['database'] = 'awm' for example, awm

   Important: This step is omitted if the database will continue to use the default names and password.

4. Close the file then choose Apply in the configuration window to apply the settings

   

5. Close the configuration window

After the Author-it Website Manager installation has been completed the final step is to edit the php.ini file.
