# WELCOME TO MAIAN AFFILIATE
===========================================


Thank you for downloading the latest version of Maian Affiliate, a free self hosted affiliate/referral system.

The free version has limited functionality in some areas, however the free version never expires. If it is ok for you, use it
as long as you like at no additional cost. The commercial licence unlocks the free restrictions.

Feature restrictions and licencing information can be found on the Maian Affiliate website:
https://www.maianaffiliate.com


# INSTALLATION / SETUP:
===========================================


For installation instructions, information, frequently asked questions and support options,
please open the following url (located in the .zip you downloaded) in your browser:


public/docs/index.html (ie: Double click to launch in default browser)


DO NOT remove or modify the 'licence.lic' file unless asked to do so.
DO NOT edit PHP files in a word processor, use a good quality text editor. Notepad++ is fine.
If pages don't load, check there is NO whitespace in the file before the opening PHP tag, or after the closing one.

An edit you made may have affected the file, bear that in mind before reporting bugs.
If you do have an issue, check the "logs" folder.


# UPGRADING:
===========================================


Refer to the 'Upgrades' section in the docs.
