How do I install a purchased item?
By Ratul Sikder · · Updated
Installing your purchased item begins with downloading the main .zip file and extracting it locally. Always read the included documentation first, as installation methods vary heavily between React components, HTML templates, and PHP scripts.
The installation process on manob.ai depends entirely on the type of product you purchased, making the included documentation your absolute most valuable resource. Whether you are setting up a static HTML template or a complex Laravel application, the general approach is to download the files, extract them, and verify that your server environment perfectly matches the stated requirements. Skipping the documentation often leads to hours of unnecessary troubleshooting. Here are the common installation methods by product type:
- PHP Scripts: Upload the extracted files via FTP, create a new database, navigate to the setup URL (like /install), and follow the on-screen wizard.
- JavaScript Frameworks (React, Vue): Extract files locally, run terminal commands like npm install for dependencies, configure your .env variables, and run the build command.
- Laravel Frameworks: Upload to your server, run composer install, copy .env.example to .env, and execute php artisan migrate.
- Shared Hosting Note: Users in Bangladesh on basic shared hosting should look for items that support cPanel or offer pre-installed versions if command-line access is unavailable.
