Grav<\/strong> is a flat-file content-management system (CMS) we use to develop custom websites for LAITS clients. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

MAMP<\/strong> is a free server environment you can use to create websites locally (local = on your own machine with no web hosting required).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 1.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Download and install MAMP here<\/a><\/strong> if not already on your LAITS machine
For Mac: MAMP – Mac, Apache, MySQL, and PHP
For Windows: WAMP – Windows, Apache, MySQL, and PHP<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

On the Grav site<\/a>, <\/strong>download from the “Grav Core + Admin Plugin” button<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 3.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Unzip the Grav <\/strong>folder and rename it from “grav-admin” to “TestSite”<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 4.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Back in MAMP, go to MAMP > Preferences > Web Server.
You should copy your “TestSite” <\/span>folder into the Document Root folder that is listed in MAMP. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

^ This is the Document Root path \u2013 \u201cC:\\MAMP\\htdocs\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

^There is our TestSite Grav folder moved into htdocs \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 5.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

On MAMP’s “Select…” button choose your “TestSite” folder and hit OK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Step 6.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Make sure your MAMP servers are on<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Step 7.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In your web browser, navigate to your local host – “localhost\/admin” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Installing Gantry 5<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Step 1.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

OK now you are logged into your local Grav dashboard which looks like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 2.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In the left-hand menu under Themes<\/em>, click +Add<\/strong> and search and select the theme “Helium”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n


Click Activate<\/strong> on Helium to make sure it is your active theme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 3.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To install Gantry, on the Plugins<\/em> tab, search and install “Gantry”. You should then see Gantry 5 <\/em>tab in your left-hand menu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Now you have Gantry installed, it’s homepage will look like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 4.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This isn’t Gantry-related, but to use a WYSIWYG editor in the Pages<\/em> editor mode, install the TinyMCE Editor Integration<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
