Welcome to the HopeBilling Documentation!

Note : [WIP] This documentation is still in making. As of now it includes the basic installation steps. It will soon have all the features of HopeBilling documented.

Prerequisite Knowledge

Ensure that you place the HopeBilling software files in the root folder of a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) or a subdomain only. As of now, HopeBilling can't be installed in a sub-directory. For example, you can install HopeBilling in examplehost.com or billing.examplehost.com but not in something like examplehost.com/billing. On doing so, you will get a 404 error. Do note that support requests pertaining to teh aforesaid will not be entertained, as sub-directory support is not planned immediately.

Installation

Browse to the HopeBilling installation. You might be greeted by an error Error! PHP param short_open_tag must be set as on in php.ini. Do not worry, just edit your php.ini file for your PHP version and set short_open_tag as On. The just restart your web server, and you should be good to go. Select the language as per your convenience. The, it is as simple as following the on-screen instructions, installing the required PHP modules, entering your MySQL database details and completing the setup.

After successful installation, the user login will be at the root directory itself and teh admin panel will be available at http://yourdomain.com/admin
