Requirements

HTMLy requires PHP 5.3 or greater.

Installations

Download the latest version, extract it, then upload the extracted files to your server. Make sure the installation folder is writeable by your server.

Configurations

Change config.ini inside config folder, and than create YourUsername.ini inside config/users folder, write down your password there.

password = YourPassword

You can login to admin panel at www.example.com/login.

Both Online or Offline

In addition to using the built-in editor in the admin panel, you can also write it offline and then upload them into content/username/blog folder (the username must match with YourUsername.ini above).

For static pages you can upload it to content/static folder.

File Naming Convention

When you write a blog post and save it via the admin panel, HTMLy automatically create a .md file extension with the following name, example:

2014-01-31-12-56_tag1,tag2,tag3_databaseless-blogging-platform.md

Here's the explanation (separated by an underscore):

2014-01-31-12-56 is the published date. The date format is yyyy-mm-dd-hh-mm
tag1,tag2,tag3 is the tag, separated by comma
databaseless-blogging-platform is the URL

For static pages, we use the following format:

about.md

That is means if about is the URL.

So if you write it offline then you must naming the .md file as above.

Content Title

If you write it offline, for the title of the post you need to add a title in the following format:

<!--t Here is the post title t-->

Paragraph 1

Paragraph 2 etc.

So wrap the title with HTML comment with t for both side.
