kusaba Requirements

To run kusaba, you should have a webserver with at least the following:

• An apache or apache2 installation

• mod_php version 4 or better, with GD and MBStrings support

• A mysql server with the MyISAM engine

Extracting kusaba

1. Download the most recent kusaba release from www.kusaba.org
2. Extract it to a directory that your apache installation has access to
3. Make sure the permissions for everything are readable and writable by your web server
4. Edit config.php

Editing config.php

To enable a feature, change the value to true:

define('TC_INSTANTREDIRECT', true);

To disable a feature, change the value to false:

define('TC_INSTANTREDIRECT', false);

To change the text value of a configuration, edit the text in the single quotes:

define('TC_NAME', 'kusaba');

Becomes:

define('TC_NAME', 'Mychan');

Warning: Do not insert single quotes in the value yourself, or else you will cause problems. To overcome this, you use what is called escaping, which is the process of adding a backslash before the single quote, to show it is part of the string:

define('TC_NAME', 'Jason\'s chan');

The postbox is where you mix dynamic values with your own text. The text from what you enter is then parsed and will be displayed under the postbox on each board page and thread page:

`define('TC_POSTBOX', '
