    Hey there,
    I am Graphic Designer trying to forge a way into development. I would love to use Pure Edit to get started on working with a CMS that I have control over. I have worked with other CMS's but never had to install one before. I am not sure how to get started and none of your screen-casts are helping me out. I am using WAMP as a server for testing, how do I go about getting Pure Edit up and running on WAMP. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for your patience and prompt reply.

    So I have managed to open it up by browsing to localhost. So far so good, I thought I could follow the screencast to get started but I can't get past step 3 of the installation. It won't accept 'localhost' as my database.

    Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    Alright.... So I have created a database now with phpmyadmin, that came with WAMP.
    Still can't get it to accept localhost?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    hej,

    What do you see when you enter http://localhost in your browser?

    For installation you need to do these things

    1. Download pureedit
    2. Create a database
    3. Extract pureedit into your webroot (click on the wamp icon next to the clock and select www directory) make sure you you don't install it into a subdirectory otherwise the url will be like this http://localhost/pureedit
    4. Open http://localhost and follow the instructions.

    Hope this helps

    hey,
    Thanks for your help, here is what is happening: I tried extracting puredit right to the www. folder this time... now when I open the localhost I get an index with puredit being the only folder in there. Before it was different with a long list, including access to phpmyadmin.

    In step one of the installation there are two errors at the top of the screen, they read:
    Notice: Undefined index: step in E:\wamp\www\PureEdit 1.4.1\pe-admin\install\index.php on line 5
    Notice: Undefined variable: content in E:\wamp\www\PureEdit 1.4.1\pe-admin\install\steps\1.php on line 5

    In step two there is an error that reads:
    Notice: Undefined variable: content in E:\wamp\www\PureEdit 1.4.1\pe-admin\install\steps\2.php on line 18

    In step three there is an error that reads:
    Notice: Undefined variable: content in E:\wamp\www\PureEdit 1.4.1\pe-admin\install\steps\3.php on line 47

    In addition to this error there is also the database error that reads:
    PureEdit was unable to connect to the given database; either your database was not found or the input you typed in is not correct. Fix the problem and please try again.

    ***I have used PHPMyAdmin to create the database, the name of my database matches the in the field of the third step in the installation. I'm not sure why I am still getting the database error.

    What do you think?
    thanks.

    What database server did you use.... localhost? The other error are because your error level is set to high. Youi cab change this in php.ini (see menu -> php wamp)

    find: error_reporting = E_ALL

    And change this to:
    error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE

    Yes I did use localhost.
    Also php.ini already has error reporting set to that.
