It would be awesome if an instruction file was included with the program.

So far, there are no instructions anywhere to be found. I did fine without instructions but not everyone will have such as easy time installing without some guidance.

Hello,

I would like to install oxwall into the following folder. www.mysite.com/community.

Is this possible?

If i install the software in the public.html, at the end people will access it by going into www.mysite.com right?

I have oxwall installed, and working. The video plugin and the photo plugin are working fine.

However, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to install a theme or a different plugin from the developers.

Help would surely be appreciated.

At this point we don't have any sufficient documentation for this.

As a general theme guidance:
1) Copy an existing theme to a different folder
2) Change theme.xml accordingly. Make sure you change "key" node.
3) Open Admin Area -> Appearance -> Choose Theme page. It will list the new theme which you can activate. Let me know if this works for you.

With plugins it's much more complicated and I suggest you to wait for the official manual of adding a plugin.

Thanks!
