GR8 Faucet Lite

Installation Guide

In this guide I will walk you through the step by step process of installing the GR8 Faucet Lite Script on your hosting, but first let me say thank you for download the GR8 Faucet Lite Script!

Ok, lets get started with a few preinstall steps.

Choose a domain name

When choosing a domain name for your faucet, it suggested that you choose a domain name thats easy to remember and short. Doing so will allow users to easily find your site again without needing to bookmark it.

Choose a hosting provider

I would recommend BlueHost as your hosting provider. Below are just a few reasons why I recommend them.

  • They have been in business for more than 18 years and host over 2 million websites
  • They have a 99.96% uptime with fast server speeds
  • Plans starting as low as $2.75/month which include:
    • FREE Domain Name for 1st Year
    • FREE SSL Certificate for new customers
  • 24/7 support should you have any questions
Choose your MicroWallet provider

While the GR8 Faucet Lite Script does support all the major MicroWallets, not all of them have a large userbase however FaucetPay and ExpressCrypto both have a good userbase that you can promote your faucet too.

Ok now that you have your domain name, hosting and a microwallet setup lets move onto the script installation.

Upload Faucet Script files#

Access your cPanel, then navigate to the File Manager

  • Upload and Extract the zip file
  • Make sure to delete any unnecessary files suchas "Instructions.html"

Basic Configuration#

Open "config.php with the file editor by right clicking and selecting "Edit". In this section you will input your database connection details between the Single Quotes. Be very cautious of the format in the config.php file, deleting a single quote or comma could cause the script to cease functioning.

After saving the config.php, access your faucet through a browser. If you have setup the config file correctly you should be redirected to the faucet admin panel. The admin panel password is the same as your database password.
