===Description===
http://sitex.bjsintay.com

SiteX is an easy to use Content Management System (CMS) that enables you to create a dynamic website without programming. It comes with components such as a journal (blog), photo gallery, calendar and forum, as well as a number of themes that can be customised from within the administration interface. The site's components can be enabled and disabled from the administration interface if required, making it easy to cut out any parts you do not require.

===Installation===
You can install SiteX by issuing the following commands from the SME Server shell:

wget http://sme.david-harper.com/data/sitex-0.7.4-418.noarch.rpm
wget http://sme.david-harper.com/data/smeserver-sitex-1.0-2.noarch.rpm
yum localinstall smeserver-sitex*.rpm sitex*.rpm
signal-event post-upgrade ; signal-event reboot

====Setup====
To configure SiteX, start your browser with the URL ''http://servername/sitex'' and complete the forms. Be sure to write down the administration account name and password, as you will need these to administer your website.

{{Note box|At the end of the configuration process, you may see a blank screen. This is a SiteX bug that is currently being investigated. Simply go back to ''http://servername/sitex'' to access your new site.}}

Once SiteX is fully configured, run the following command from the SME Server shell to delete the setup files:

signal-event sitex-post-upgrade

====Upgrade====
Upgrading SiteX requires a little work.

{{Note box|Always consult the SiteX release notes for important information regarding upgrades. Before you begin, be sure to back up any customisations you have made, particularly themes. It might also be a good idea to back up the '''/opt/sitex/content''' directory, just in case something goes wrong.}}

1. First, put your site into Maintenance Mode.

2. Follow the install instructions above to update to the latest version.

3. After the server has rebooted, open your browser to ''http://servername/sitex'' to run the upgrade.

4. Once the upgrade is finished, delete the setup files by running the following command from the shell:

signal-event sitex-post-upgrade

5. Finally, log back in to your site from ''http://servername/sitex/login.php'' and disable Maintenance Mode.

=== Options ===
* You can fine tune access to SiteX by using the e-smith database.

=== Usage ===
To access SiteX, simply open ''http://servername/sitex'' in your browser.

To access the administration interface, go to ''http://servername/sitex/login.php'' and enter the account details you created during the installation process.

=== Uninstallation ===
To remove the package issue the following command on the SME Server shell:
rpm -e sitex smeserver-sitex

There is no need to reboot.

To remove the MySQL database and user (both of which are simply "sitex"), see [[MySQL#Remove a database]] and [[MySQL#Remove a user]].
