Installation details

Use the exact database information shown in Hostinger hPanel. Your credentials are sent only to this website's installer and saved in the protected private configuration file.

✓PHP 8.1 or newer
✓PDO extension
✓PDO MySQL driver
✓OpenSSL
✓mbstring
✓Writable storage folder
✓Writable config location
01 · Your website
Use your final HTTPS domain without a trailing slash.
02 · MySQL database from Hostinger hPanel
Usually localhost; use the host Hostinger shows.
Never share this password or put it in a public screenshot.
03 · First administrator
Use at least 12 characters.
04 · Outgoing email identity
Configure this address with your domain email provider before testing resets.
What happens next? The installer creates the database tables, inserts the administrator, generates a random app encryption key and writes a protected config file. Payment keys, AdSense IDs, creator rules and other settings are entered later from Admin → Settings. Database credentials are managed here because they are needed to connect to MySQL.
