I will teach you how to setup and run a PHP Nuke Portal

1. Download the free version from phpnuke.org
2. unpack and open the config.php
3. Modify the data to match your MySQL Database

That above is an example
4. upload all files including the edited config.php
5.after the files are uploaded, open either Phpminiadmin or phpadmin

6a. For phpminiadmin:
click the link to "import database"
find the sql file in your sql folder
upload and import
6b. PHPmyadmin is the same way
Import data from sql file

7. Run www.yoursite.com/admin.php
8. Create your super user
9. Boom, there you go, PHP Nuke Portal up and running!
