Upload Files
The first task is to upload the files to your current J-Board install. When you unpack the zip file the file structure will look like this. You need to upload all the files/folders, as they are to the root folder of your J-Board install.
This means jobseekers.php etc will be in the same folder as config.php and your files on the server should now look like this.
Inside the ‘plugins’ folder you will see a folder called ‘hresume’. This folder contains the files for the Resume Plugin.
If you have all of the files uploaded into the right place you can now browse to the install file.
Install
To install the Resume Plugin we need to create a couple of new tables, this is done for you by the install script.
Browse to yourdomain.com/plugins/hresume/install.php
When you get there you should see a message in green telling you both tables have been created.
That’s it. You are now ready to configure the settings for your Resume section.
Configuration
The first thing you need to do is make some small adjustments to your theme. Edit header.php and add a link for the resume plugin like this
<ul> <li><a href="<?php echo SITE_URL; ?>" title="<?php echo SITE_TITLE; ?>">Home</a></li> <li><a href="<?php echo SITE_URL; ?>page.php?p=about" title="<?php echo SITE_TITLE; ?>">About</a></li> <li><a href="<?php echo SITE_URL; ?>addlisting.php" title="<?php echo SITE_TITLE; ?>">Add</a></li> <li><a href="<?php echo SITE_URL; ?>" title="<?php echo SITE_TITLE; ?>">Listings</a></li> <li><a href="<?php echo SITE_URL; ?>jobseekers.php" title="Job SeeKers">CV’s</a></li> </ul>
You also need to add a link to include the new CSS file to style the resume section, again in header.php add the line you see below highlighted green.
<link href="<?php echo SITE_URL; ?>themes/<?php echo SITE_THEME; ?>/css/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <link href="<?php echo SITE_URL; ?>plugins/hresume/theme/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <link rel="shortcut icon" href="<?php echo SITE_URL; ?>themes/<?php echo SITE_THEME; ?>/favicon.ico" />
Now you can browse to your site and you should see a link in the top menu to CV’s
