How to install the HumHub-RSS-Reader module

  1. Point your web browser at the repository on GitHub https://github.com/StevenJoynt/HumHub-RSS-Reader
  2. Click the green Code button which is on the right, above the list of files
  3. Choose Download ZIP and save the file to your computer
  4. Log in to the web hosting account where your HumHub files are stored Note: this is NOT your administrator login at your HubHub site, but your service provider login (maybe GoDaddy, or IONOS 1&1, etc.)
  5. Navigate to the folder where the web site files are stored It will probably be called something like your web site domain name, or it may be called public_html or docroot Within this main folder, you should see sub-folders like: assets, protected, static, themes, uploads
  6. Within the protected folder you'll find a humhub folder, and within there you'll find a modules folder
  7. Upload the ZIP file you downloaded at step 3 into this folder, then unzip/unpack/extract it This will populate a new folder called HumHub-RSS-Reader-main (it will not affect any other files)
  8. If you are updating the module, and you already have a folder called rss, you will need to delete it
  9. Rename the HumHub-RSS-Reader-main folder as rss
