Qwwwik setup


Setup is just a matter of pressing the 'Submit setup' button, but you might want to edit the settings before you do. They can be changed at any time – make the changes then submit setup again.


Setup follows installation, which sets the passwords and writes various files required for Qwwwik to operate. If the script cannot write the required files (due to insufficient server permissions) then the process proceeds no further. That would be very unusual nowadays however. They usually get written and when they are, a link to the setup page is displayed.

The admin/setup page is used to create the settings file. Until you have run 'install' and 'setup' the system will not work, so do that first.

On the setup page

'Enter as required' contains the following example texts:

Select 'YES' for 'Bottom URL' to change the link at the bottom of public pages from Qwwwik to your home page (using 'site name' as the link text). Obviously I would rather it left as 'NO' but it's up to you.

Select 'REL' for 'Links' to make internal links relative, not absolute. Change back at any time. The default is absolute.

Select a font type as required.

Click Submit setup. You should then see "Settings entered" in the green status bar at the top. Qwwwik is now good to go.


Control spam

If spam is received via a contact or comment-enabled page it can be stopped to a degree by using 'stopwords'. If a message contains a stopword it will not be sent. The setup page contains a link to the stopwords page.

Example stopwords (one per line):

rankings
seo
engines
keywords
freelance
marketer
sex
http
https
bitcoin
