I felt I should add a note regarding the updating of the data base. You will need a way to execute the code found in the /sql/upgrade.sql file, that is, after you’ve made the appropriate changes. I’ve taken the steps outlined above and added some additional instructions here below.

For my website, I utilized a couple of features on my web host’s control panel. The first was a feature called Site Backup, which allowed me to create a backup copy of my database. After saving that backup copy to my desktop, I was able to open the database and find the necessary information needed to edit the /upgrade.sql file.

The next feature I used on my web host’s control panel was phpMyAdmin. This allowed me to copy/paste the edited sql code and execute it to complete my database upgrade.

2. Upgrade your Database

A. Use the code here: /sql/upgrade.sql
1) Find the file in the Pommo-Master (or root) directory.
2) Open the file in Notepad (or some other editor).

B. Change all occurrences of to the correct prefix your database is using (pommo_tablename)
C. Change all occurrences of with the user you will use to login

D. Change all occurrences of with the password you will use to login
1) Now, save the file with changes you made.

E. Log in to phpMyAdmin, select the appropriate database, then select the SQL tab (which allows you to run SQL query/queries on database), copy and paste the code from the /upgrade.sql file into the text box and click “Go”. Your database should now be updated.

Thanks GFisk for this post! And, a great big thanks goes to Soonick at GitHub.com for taking the reigns on this project and keeping it relevant!

Quick Install Instructions:
1. Make sure your webhost meets the Minimal Requirements
2. Download and extract the latest version of poMMo
* This should create a directory named ‘pommo’ wherever you unpacked it. This is known as the poMMo Root.
3. Create a MySQL database on your webserver for poMMo to use.
4. Create (and edit) the config.php in your poMMo Root
* Save the included config.sample.php (or the simplified config.simple.sample.php) as config.php.
* Make sure the database name, host, and username/password match the values provided in config.php
5. If you have not done so already, copy the entire contents of the poMMo Root to the directory you’d like poMMo to run from on your webserver.
* You can use FTP to install poMMo on your webserver
6. Make sure the webserver can write to the “cache” directory in the poMMo root.
* This can be accomplished by setting permissions to “777” on a *nix system.
7. Visit your poMMo installation in a web browser and complete the online install procedure.

There may still be some bugs. Like groups issue and WYSIWYG HTML editor is old but at least it is working.

Thumbs Up for this good effort!!!
