GoDaddy Setup Instructions for NX8020™

Step 1: Database Setup

  1. Login to GoDaddy cPanel

    • Go to your hosting control panel
    • Find "MySQL Databases" or "phpMyAdmin"

  2. Create Database

    • Create a new database (e.g., nx8020_db)
    • Create a database user with full privileges
    • Note down: database name, username, password

  3. Run SQL Setup

    • Open phpMyAdmin
    • Select your database
    • Go to "SQL" tab
    • Copy and paste the contents of database-setup.sql
    • Click "Go" to execute

Step 2: Upload Files

  1. Upload PHP Files

    • Upload api/ folder to your website root
    • Upload admin/ folder to your website root
    • Make sure file permissions are set to 644

  2. Update Database Credentials

    • Edit api/waitlist.php
    • Edit api/demo-interaction.php
    • Edit admin/view-prospects.php
    • Edit admin/export-prospects.php

    Replace these values:

    $username = "your_actual_db_username";
$password = "your_actual_db_password";
$dbname = "your_actual_db_name";

  3. Set Admin Password

    • Edit admin/view-prospects.php
    • Edit admin/export-prospects.php
    • Change: $admin_password = "your_secure_password_here";

Step 3: Test the Setup

  1. Test Form Submission

    • Go to your website
    • Fill out the waitlist form
    • Check if you get success message

  2. Check Database

    • Go to phpMyAdmin
    • Check if data appears in nx8020_waitlist table

  3. Test Admin Panel

    • Go to yoursite.com/admin/view-prospects.php
    • Enter your admin password
    • Verify you can see prospects

Step 4: Security (Important!)

  1. Protect Admin Files

    • Add .htaccess file in /admin/ folder:
    AuthType Basic
AuthName "Admin Area"
AuthUserFile /path/to/.htpasswd
Require valid-user

  2. SSL Certificate

    • Enable SSL in GoDaddy cPanel
    • Update all URLs to use HTTPS

Step 5: Monitoring

  1. Check Error Logs

    • Monitor cPanel error logs
    • Check for PHP errors

  2. Database Backups

    • Set up automatic backups in cPanel
    • Export data regularly

Accessing Your Data

  • Admin Dashboard: yoursite.com/admin/view-prospects.php
  • Export CSV: Click "Export to CSV" in admin dashboard
  • Direct Database: Use phpMyAdmin in cPanel

Troubleshooting

  • Form not working: Check database credentials
  • Admin panel not loading: Check file permissions
  • No data showing: Check error logs in cPanel
  • CORS errors: Make sure API files have proper headers
