Pre-Installation Check:
A critical part in the installation process, this checks if all the minimumsystem requirements are met. The first set are required minimums, if they are red (not met) then you need
to find a new environment (change hosts), talk them into changing their
environment (upgrading PHP for example). Note that the last item is a
permissions issue on a file that is much easier to rectify. You can usually
change permissions through the cpanel provided by your host. This tool is
generally an industry standard. The second set is recommended settings. If you don't meet them you can
still install Joomla but it you experience problems with functionality and
security. Once you are green to go, click next.
Joomla is released under a GNU/GPL license. One of the most
common questions regarding this license is ìcan I remove the
footer link that says Powered by Joomlaî. ItÃs actually
perfectly OK to do this, you just have to keep the copyright
statement in the source code. However, I would recommend that you
keep the link. Why? Joomla is an open source project, it
receives no funding from any kind of revenue from selling its
software. The bottom line is that thousands of developers around
the world are developing this software that you are using right
now. If you had to buy it from a commercial company, it would
cost tens of thousands of dollars, but you are getting it for
free. In return, keep the link, it will help the project gain in
popularity and grow. DonÃt hide the fact that you are using
Joomla, be proud of it! And donÃt be concerned about any kind of
SEO dilution with an extra link off your page. Links to
authoritative sites actually help you SEO! OK, IÃll get off my
soapbox nowÖ
