My name is Melissa, Mel for short. I'm a 18 year old, young aspiring graphics artist. I come from a hole of a town called Ingham in Queensland Australia. Wouldn't even surprise me if you ever find it on the map. I love graphic design, websites, internet, writing and my friends. I loath those who steal, lie and take credit for other people's hard work, so please be aware of that before you steal from me.

Home » Tutorials » CSS/HTML » Cutenews Installation


This tutorial will teach you how to use PHP inclusions correctly.

  1. First of all you need to make sure you have a host (Sub-domain) or your own domain. Cutenews will not work on Freewebs, piczo etc.
  2. Open your FTP program then download and unzip cutenews from here: http://cutephp.com/
  3. Once you have done that open the cutenews folder on your computer, make sure you open it becuase when you unzip file it houses another file holding the files, so open it, there should be a file saying Cutenews..., now upload that whole folder onto your FTP.
  4. Once cutenews has been uploaded onto your FTP, you need to chnage the permissions of certain files. Open the directory file Cutenews on your FTP there will be a file saying Data right click on that and go to change permissions each FTP program is different but all you need to know is to make sure all the boxes are ticked and then press okay. That is CHMOD-ing to 777.
  5. Now open the data, you need to do the exactly the same thing to all the files and folders and all the files within the folders under data. Once that is done open your internet browser and type your url then /cutenews this will open cutenews. There will be a button saying proceed with installation, click that and follow the rest of the prompts. When it gets to a screen saying installer has been detected press 'delete automatically'
  6. Once you have done all of that, cutenews is installed. To add news click add news type your news.
  7. Now you want it to appear on your site, simple use this code.

    <?PHP
    $number=4;
    $category=1;
    $template=TEMAPLATENAME;
    include("/home/public_html/cutenews/show_news.php"); ?>

    Number refers to how many news items you wnat to show on the page.
    Category is the category it is in, to do that you go to options >> Edit categories >>Type category anme in >> create
    Template refers to the template. To create a template go to options >> edit templates >>create new template.
  8. For those who use CSS and what their own headers for the news title then open Active news and full news and where it says {title} around it make it look like this.

    <h1>{ title }</h1>

    This will input your own headers.
  9. The show path refers to where the news comes from, to determing your path go options >> intergrate newss and RSS into your site >> intergrate news >> then follow the prompts then it'll say we determind that your path is blah blah blah. Once you have all this sorted copy the code into you page coding where you want the news to appear. Then you have to change the page extension to .php so if the page was index, the it would be index.php go to your site and your news is there. If you want to change how your news looks then simply fiddle with your templates, considering you know how to code you should be right.
  10. You can then change all your pages to .php .
