The following description applies to a generic BBClone installation, that does
not reflect particular weblogs/content management systems. For this purpose it's
recommended you take a look at our links page first, which features a listing to
external resources.


Setup
=====

If you are a Windows user you should prefer the *.zip package because its
included documentation uses Windows style formatting, which means it will be
readable in applications like Notepad, too. If your favorite editor hasn't got
a problem with Unix formatted documents, you can also download the *.tar.gz
archive.

There are two ways to upload BBClone via FTP. Either you upload the package and
extract it on the server or you upload the already extracted files. As a rule
of thumb, whenever shell access is available, you should extract the archive on
the server because it will save you a lot of time and ensures all files are
copied to their destination. If there's no shell access or you simply don't know
how to operate on such a shell you can upload the single files to your server.
But be aware there are a couple of pitfalls:

Your FTP client must have been configured to treat *.php, *.inc and *.png
files as binary files. Uploading them in ascii mode may break the application
or result in broken images. Ask your FTP client's vendor how to configure it,
if you feel unsure about it and its documentation doesn't give any hints
You have to double check whether really all files have been copied to their
destination. Sometimes it happens that FTP servers unexpectedly shut down the
connection or runs into a timeout if there's a large amount of files.
Your FTP client should offer options to resume incomplete files and skip
already existing files of the same size. It will make your life much easier

It's a good idea to make something like a sketch about the documents structure
on your server. You need to know the path to your BBClone installation
directory and how to get there from each point of your site you wish to monitor
the traffic.

Example:

www.example.com
|
index.php (1)
|
|
|----bbclone/
|
|
|----subdirectory/
| |
| index.php (2)


The path to BBClone in document (1) would be "bbclone/", because "index.php"
resides in the root directory. But be aware of document (2). It's path is
different, because it's path starting from the www-root is actually
"subdirectory/index.php". In other words at the same level as the BBClone
directory. So in order to get to the BBClone directory we need to move one
level up and then enter the BBClone directory. That's why the path to BBClone
for document (2) is "../bbclone/. The ".." tell the server to move to the
parent directory first.

If you browse BBClone's directory you'll notice a directory called "var/". In
Unix land, a var directory contains frequently alterred files, typically stuff
like logs or data bases would be stored there. BBClone will store its data
there, but in order to do so the server needs to be allowed to write to some
files. The files are:

counter[0-15].inc -> contains the raw connection data of a visitor
access.php -> contains the data used for global and time statistics
last.php -> contains the data used for detailed statistics
.htalock -> lockfile needed while writing to the files mentioned above

To make these files writable for the server apply the "chmod" command. If your
server doesn't know "chmod" contact your hosting company for getting the
appropriate command. If your PHP runs as Apache module then "chmod 666" will be
the right command. "644" won't work because the server accesses the file as a
different user, which would restrict access to read-only, as "644" would only
grant write access for the owner. If your PHP runs as cgi-binary then
"chmod 644" may already be sufficient, since the server will use your user id
for accessing the files. If unsure, use "chmod 666".

Now the code needs to be added to the files you wish to monitor. It's a good
idea to create a test file at first to see whether BBClone is already working.
To do you can use the following sample and point your browser to it.

define("_BBC_PAGE_NAME", "Test");
define("_BBCLONE_DIR", "bbclone/");
define("COUNTER", _BBCLONE_DIR."mark_page.php");
if (is_readable(COUNTER)) include_once(COUNTER);
?>

Attention! You have to customise this snippet to suit your needs.

_BBC_PAGE_NAME
contains the title you want to use for the page. This title will be displayed
in your stats later.
_BBCLONE_DIR
The path to the BBClone directory. Remember the sketch from 1.3?
Now you need the result of your preparation for setting this
variable. You may need to change this entry depending on the
file's location. If unsure, please reread section 1.3. Don't
forget the trailing slash at the end of the directory.

You can also use the following snippet:
define("_BBCLONE_DIR", "bbclone/");
define("COUNTER", _BBCLONE_DIR."mark_page.php");
if (is_readable(COUNTER)) include_once(COUNTER);
?>
This time we left out the page title. If BBClone doesn't find one it will
automatically create one derived from the file's path. This is useful if you
have a lot of pages and want to automate the naming process.

Now that we tested anything and found it working, we can go on to register
visits. The "traditional" method requires *.php pages. You also need to have
permissions to run PHP (of course). If you want to put your code somewhere
else the file needs to be included into a *.php file eventually, so the server
recognises it and is able to run the PHP interpreter.


Inside of PHP files not everything is necessarily PHP code. Sometimes passages
of code alter with pure html. each PHP codeblock is started with " with "?>". If you want to add the code within such a PHP code block, you will
have to write:

define("_BBC_PAGE_NAME", "Test");
define("_BBCLONE_DIR", "bbclone/");
define("COUNTER", _BBCLONE_DIR."mark_page.php");
if (is_readable(COUNTER)) include_once(COUNTER);

(or without the page title, see 1.4 for details)

If however you're outside of such a block and find nothing but html tags then
you need to add the php enclosings so the server knows it has to parse this
passage as PHP code. Please note that the server can't run php from within a
*.html file. In this case you would see the counter code "as is" in the html
source

If you run an apache server and are allowed to use .htaccess you can even
monitor your *.html pages without ever editing or renaming them. Attention:
THE FOLLOWING CODE ISN'T GUARANTUEED TO RUN EVERYWHERE. IF IT DOESN'T WORK FOR
YOU THERE'S NOTHING TO BE DONE ABOUT IT.

1. Add the following to your .htaccess:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .htm .html
php_value auto_append_file "/the/path/that/leads/to/count.php"

The path needs to be a local absolute path like the example above. Create the
file "count.php" and add the following:

define("_BBCLONE_DIR", "/the/path/that/leads/to/bbclone/");
define("COUNTER", _BBCLONE_DIR."mark_page.php");
if (is_readable(COUNTER)) include_once(COUNTER);
?>

In our example "count.php" is situated in the www-root. If your files are
located elsewhere you need to modify the paths accordingly (see 1.3). An
absolute path is required to make this snippet work. If you don't know the
absolute path to your BBClone directory you can do the following:
Go to your bbclone directory, open index.php in your favorite editor and add
the line:

echo "<?php\n"
."define("_BBCLONE_DIR", ""
.dirname(__FILE__)."/");\n"
."define("COUNTER", _BBCLONE_DIR.""
."mark_page.php");\n"
."if (is_readable(COUNTER)) include_once(COUNTER);\n"
."?>\n";

Point your browser to it, copy and paste the output and save it into a file as
"count.php" (to stick with our example). Don't forget to remove the line from
index.php afterwards else it will be displayed each time you call your stats.

Now the following will happen:
Each time someone calls one of the ".htm" or ".html" pages the code snippet with
the counter code will be automatically appended. BBClone will automatically
create a page title derived from the file's path which will be used in the page
stats then.
