There are two options to install the Democracy forum. Either you use the
|
| 4 |
installation profile (recommended) or you install it as an usual module.
|
| 5 |
The benefits of using the installation profile is that it will serve as a
|
| 6 |
"on-click-installer" and configure the site for your. The drawback is that you
|
| 7 |
can't use it on an existing Drupal installation, in that case you have to
|
| 8 |
install the Democracy forum as an usual module and configure the site on your
|
| 9 |
own.

INSTALLING WITH INSTALLATION PROFILE (RECOMMENDED)
|

-------------------------------------------------
|
| 13 |
If you decide to use the installation profile, close this file and instead
|
| 14 |
download the installation profile at XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX. Follow the instructions
|
| 15 |
in INSTALL.txt included in the package.

INSTALLING AS A USUAL MODULE
|
| 19 |
----------------------------
|
| 20 |
If you instead decide to install the Democracy forum as an usual module (and not
|
| 21 |
with the installation profile), please read on.
