Overview
This guide covers a fresh installation of the jomSocial 3 component into the Joomla CMS. You will need a working Joomla! site in order to install JomSocial. Please refer to the article, minimum system requirements, to determine the requirements your server will have to meet.
You can also use the iJoomla installer to upgrade your site
Adding Support and Install Domain Licenses
Before you can proceed with the installation of JomSocial 3, you must add these domains into your account area. To do this please navigate to main JomSocial site and click at the "My Account" link in the top right corner
"My Downloads" page with all of the purchases you ever made will be open.
For every license you might have, please enter the support and install domain
- Support Domain - This will be the domain you will officially get technical support for
- Domains you wish to install this product on - All additional domains you want to install the component on. No technical support will be provided for those.
Downloading iJoomla Installer
After support and instalation domains have been set, the green download button will become active and you will be able to download the package you have purchased.
