Install

Ofont is based on ProcessWire, those information will help you to install it.

1. Download the last version of ProcessWire then unzip it to another location.

2. Before installing ProcessWire, rename the folder /site-default/ to /site/ then copy and paste the following files from ofont directory to ProcessWire directory:

    /site/install/
    /site/templates/
    /site/modules/
    /site/config-example.php
   

3. Delete the existing config.php and rename the file config-example.php to config.php.

4. Create a new dedicated SQL database using PhpMyAdmin.

5. After you've completed the steps above, run the installer /install.php for the new site by loading it in your browser and follow the instructions.

When Finished

It's not good to leave the exported profile lying around as it may be consuming quite a bit of disk space. As a result, I recommend that you remove the profile when done with all of the above steps (/site/install/install.sql).

Customise

Ofont uses Stylus for CSS compiling, and Fontello to generate icon font.
