    | Installing CuteNews |   
    | CuteNews is actually easier than I expected to install. I did have a few 
      problems with the coding it onto your page bit, but I researched and discovered 
      the problem. So here is a short guide to installing CuteNews onto your Website.
 
 Our Installing Instructions:
 1. Before you do anything, contact your host and check if your host 
      supports PHP. Just PHP, no MySQL is involved.
 2. Now you can download the zip file from this link: http://cutephp.com/cutenews/ 
      before you unzip it, go to your FTP and create a new directory called "cutenews" 
      or "news" or whatever you want.
 3. Now upload all the unzipped cutenews content into the cutenews 
      directory on your FTP.
 4. Now CHMOD the cutenews/index.php file to 777 and all the files 
      and folders in the "data" folder to 777 including the "data" 
      directory folder.
 5. Now go to http://yoursite.com/cutenews/index.php and follow the 
      easy-to-follow instructions.
 6. If that didn't help you much, then follow the official CuteNews 
      instructions below.
 
 CuteNews' Installing Instructions (You can find these instructions in the 
      "README.htm" file you download in the zipped folder)
 1) Create a directory on your server ( e.g. cutenews )
 2) Upload the content of the cutenews.1.3.6.zip to the directory 
      you created in step 1
 3) Now You must CHMOD the the directory cutenews/data/ and all files 
      and
 folders under the data/ directory must be also chmod'ed to 777.
 4) Finally, go to http://yoursite.com/cutenews/index.php with you 
      favorite browser and fallow the instructions.
 
 How to get CuteNews on Your Page
 
 If your website already uses PHP, then this should be easy.
 But if you didn't use it, follow this:
 
 1. Open your index page (that has your layout) and rename it to index.php 
      instead of index.html.
 2. Where you want your news to show, input this simple PHP code:
 
 <?PHP
 include("path/to/show_news.php");
 ?>
 
 That displays your active news on your page. But remember to CHANGE the 
      "path/to/show_news.php" to the folder that has all your CuteNews 
      files in. (Example: cutenews/show_news.php)
 
 There are many other ways to display your news that can be found in the 
      README.htm file.
 
 Now if you were already using PHP, follow this:
 
 1. Do the same as the above, but when making a link, most people 
      do this http://www.yoursite.com/index1.php?id=yourpage. Simple. Change it 
      to http://www.yoursite.com/index1.php?page=yourpage. So instead of the id= 
      change it to page=.
 
 If it still doesn't work then look though the CuteNews forum, Click 
      Here. I advise looking through the Hacks & Tricks / FAQ forum for 
      some cool addons and some answers to questions, and if that doesn't help, 
      then go to the Problem Solving / Help & Support forum.
