How do I install this?

[pokerworx]

Found this tool that the guy is giving out for free but I have no idea on how to install it. Its a link pages tool what do I need to have or do for this?

''These installation instructions may be too detailed for some users and they mainly target the first time installer. So please forgive me if I go too deep in explaining features. Before you begin you will need to know the following information

The name of the database you will be using.
The database username
The password for the database
The name of the host that the database is running on, in most cases this is localhost.
Now, unzip the files which you were sent and keep the directory structure the same. You should now have a folder called resources/ This folder is the working directory for Link Station Pro and all files which are created by the build engine will be created in this folder. Also in this folder you will find an admin/ folder and a template/ folder which contain all the files which make Link Station Pro tick.''

I get hosting from a guy who has a good plan so I don't think I have a database do I need to sort my own hosting and if so does a database come with it?

Many thanks

Looks like you will need to go in to your cpanel (yoursite.com/cpanel/) and set up a mysql database. Then you just remember the username and password for the db and enter it in to a config file or something that comes with the script.

If you play with it you should be able to figure it out, or most of it anyways.

Most hosting plans include a number of mysql or postgresql databases.

The easiest thing to do would probably be to ask whoever you are currently getting hosting from. A short mail asking something like "are there any databases included in my current hosting plan? If not, do you have any other plans which include them?" should do the trick.

Thanks guys, see I get hosting form a guy here who has a load of sites and I dont want to go near the cpanel just incase I blow things up. Think its about time I got my own im looking at bluehost or hostgator (another hosting question sry). There about the same cost with there own dedicated IP which would you go for?

Hostgator over bluehost for sure. I have used both, and the support at hostgator is just A+++
