Installation

LeadHub installs entirely through a browser-based wizard. No SSH, no terminal, no Composer.

---

Before You Begin

✅ Confirm your server meets the requirements
✅ Create a MySQL database and database user (note the credentials)
✅ Have your license key ready (from CodeCanyon purchase)
✅ Have FTP/cPanel File Manager access to upload the files

---

Step 1 — Upload the Files

1. Download the LeadHub package from CodeCanyon → Downloads.
2. Extract the ZIP file on your computer.
3. Upload the entire contents of the extracted folder to your web root (e.g. public_html/) via FTP or cPanel File Manager.

⚠️ Do not upload the outer folder itself — upload its contents so that index.php sits directly in public_html/.

---

Step 2 — Set File Permissions

On shared hosting these are usually set automatically, but verify:

Path	Permission
storage/	755 (recursively)
bootstrap/cache/	755
public/	755

---

Step 3 — Open the Installation Wizard

Navigate to your domain in a browser:

https://yourdomain.com/install

If you see a white page or error, check that mod_rewrite is enabled and .htaccess is present in the root.

---

Step 4 — Requirements Check

The wizard checks all PHP requirements automatically. Any failing item is shown in red with a brief explanation. Fix any red items before proceeding.

---

Step 5 — Database Configuration

Enter your database credentials:

Field	Description
Database Host	Usually localhost or 127.0.0.1
Database Port	Usually 3306
Database Name	The database you created
Database Username	The database user
Database Password	The database user's password

Click Test Connection to verify, then Next.

---

Step 6 — Application Settings

Field	Description
App URL	Your domain, e.g. https://yourdomain.com
App Name	Shown in the browser tab and emails
Timezone	Your primary timezone

---

Step 7 — License Key

Enter the Purchase Code (license key) from your CodeCanyon purchase. The wizard validates it online.

---

Step 8 — Super Admin Account

Create the first super admin account:

Field	Notes
Name	Your full name
Email	Used to log in
Password	Minimum 8 characters

⚠️ Save these credentials — this is the root admin account for the entire platform.

---

Step 9 — Cron Job Setup

The wizard shows the exact cron command for your server. Copy it and add it to your hosting control panel:

* * * * * /usr/bin/php /home/username/public_html/cron.php >> /dev/null 2>&1

On cPanel: Cron Jobs → Add New Cron Job → Every Minute → paste the command.

---

Step 10 — Finish

Click Complete Installation. The wizard writes the .env file and runs migrations. When done, you are redirected to the Super Admin login page at /super-admin.

---

After Installation

1. Log in at /super-admin with the credentials you just created.
2. Create your first Tenant.
3. Log in to the tenant admin panel at /admin (or tenant.yourdomain.com/admin).

---

Troubleshooting

Problem	Fix
Blank page at /install	Check .htaccess exists and mod_rewrite is on
"Database connection failed"	Verify credentials; ensure the DB user has full privileges
Stuck at requirements check	Install the missing PHP extension via cPanel → PHP Extensions
500 error after install	Check storage/logs/laravel.log via File Manager
