INSTALLATION

 For protection of your PHP scripts, you will do the following two steps:

1. Encrypt your PHP scripts.

2. Install needed library which will allow you to run protected.


First Step: Encrypt your PHP scripts

For encryption/decryption of your scripts you should run PHTML Encoder converter (as GUI or console tool).

GUI version is easier. You can choose source script or scripts directory, change target directory.
Please select options copy other file, make self-decodable scripts and with sub-dirs by your wish.
After this you should press Encrypt or Decrypt button for encryption/decryption despectively.


Second Step: Install PHTML Encoder

There are three ways to implement PHTML Encoder:

         1. Self-decodable scripts
         2. Install PHP extensions
         3. Replace PHP engine library

The first method requires no changes to PHP installation, but you must put a phtmlenc-4.X.X.so in every
PHP script directory. The other two options require change to PHP installation. Details for each
installation method follows:


1. Self-decodable scripts

Self-decodable scripts require a phtmlenc-4.X.X.so library file in every PHP script directory. 
Copy the correct phtmlenc-4.X.X.so file in PHTML Encoder directory, where X.X is a version
of your PHP engine.

2. Install PHP extensions

Copy the correct extension file to the PHP extensions directory. Please use the 
'phtmlenc4.X.X.so' file in PHTML Encoder directory, where X.X is a version number
of your PHP engine. Find PHP.INI file for 'extension' parameter. 
Add 'extension='phtmlenc4.2.1.so' string to your PHP.INI file to this section, where 4.2.1 
is a version number of your PHP engine, for example.
To confirm that your extension is being used, run phpinfo(). 
Results must contain the 'PHTML Encoder v.3.4 extension | enabled' string.
