Getting Started
Extract your script zip file which you've downloaded from CodeCanyon
Version 1.x users need to clean install this script with new database, there's no backward compatibility.
1. Prepare the database

2.
Create a new Database

2. Upload the product
Upload the content of the script on your web host.
The product can be uploaded either on a subdomain or domain depending on your needs.
3. Configure Root Directory
Your domain name or sub-domain should have the root directory set to the /public/ folder of the script, the .htaccess files are in the public folder as well. If you don't set it you can face 403 Forbidden Access error.
Make sure you uploaded the .htaccess file! This file is found inside of the /public folder and it may appear hidden on your pc and if not uploaded, it will produce a 404 Error on any link you click on the website.
4. Prepare the product files
You need to set the permissions (CHMOD) of the base folder, sub-folder and files to either 755, 775, or 777 which will depend on your actual server.
APP URL is your domain name (eg. http://domain.com or http://tiktok.domain.com), it's useful when you want to install the script in sub-domain.
