To get started you’ll need to login to your control panel (https:\/\/vassarspaces.net\/dashboard<\/a>) using your Vassar College username\u00a0and password.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Once logged in you’ll be on the homepage of your cPanel. Navigate to the\u00a0Web Applications<\/strong>\u00a0section of the cPanel and\u00a0find\u00a0Featured Applications<\/strong>. Then select\u00a0Omeka<\/strong>.
    \n\"\"<\/li>\n
  2. This page gives you more information about the Omeka software. To begin the install, click\u00a0install this application<\/strong>\u00a0in the upper-righthand corner.
    \n\"\"<\/li>\n
  3. On the next page, the installer will ask for some information about this install. The first thing you’ll want to do is decide where to install it. If you’re wanting to install Omeka on your main domain, you can leave the directory area empty. If you created a subdomain, you can select it from the drop-down menu. You also have the option of installing Omeka in a subfolder by typing in the folder name in the\u00a0Directory\u00a0<\/strong>field. Click here for more information about\u00a0subdomains and subfolders<\/a>.
    \n\"\"<\/li>\n
  4. Scroll down to the next Setting section. Set an\u00a0Administrator Username and Administrator Password. You will need this again shortly.<\/li>\n
  5. By default the installer will automatically backup your website and update it anytime a new version comes out. While we recommend you keep this option, it is possible to only do minor updates, or turn them off completely. The installer will also create a database for you automatically, but if you’ve already created one for this website you can choose\u00a0Let me manage the database settings<\/strong>\u00a0and enter the details. Click\u00a0Install<\/strong>\u00a0to continue.
    \n\"\"<\/li>\n
  6. The installer will take just a few moments to install Omeka and a progress bar will keep you updated. When it is complete you will see a link to your new Omeka site as well as a link to the backend administrative section for your Omeka site. Click the\u00a0Omeka Admin<\/strong>\u00a0link to configure your new Omeka installation.
    \n\"\"<\/li>\n
  7. When you visit your new Omeka Admin link, you are asked for the admin username and password. Enter the\u00a0Username <\/strong>and\u00a0Password<\/strong>\u00a0that you set for the administrative superuser (i.e. yourself).
