Installation

Prerequisites: To install Kirby you need a local server and PHP. You can see a list of local development environments on Kirby docs.

  1. Unzip the theme folder into your web server root.
  2. Open your browser to your local server’s address (i.e. localhost:8888).
  3. Visit the Panel adding /panel to your server's address.

Installing Kirby consists basically of creating a user account. For security reasons, you cannot install the Panel on a public server by default.

Once you have created your first account you can copy your files to a remote server and manage your site using the Panel.

When copying files to a remote server via (S)FTP, make sure to copy the .htaccess file as well. By default, files starting with a dot are invisible in the filesystem, so make sure to enable the display of invisible files.

Once you publish your website, you need to purchase a Kirby license and register your site in the Panel.

The Panel

Kirby's web interface is called the Panel. You can find it at yourdomain.com/panel.

Site

The site dashboard shows a list of all pages, allows you to add a favicon and logo, and also manages the footer links.
