Installation

Install from MODX Extras

Search for BetterMediaBrowser in the Package Manager of your MODX installation and install it in there.

Manual installation

If you can't access the MODX Extras Repository in your MODX installation, you can manually install BetterMediaBrowser.

  • Download the transport package from MODX Extras (or one of the pre-built transport packages in _packages)
  • Upload the zip file to your MODX installation's core/packages folder or upload it manually in the MODX Package Manager.
  • In the MODX Manager, navigate to the Package Manager page, and select 'Search locally for packages' from the dropdown button.
  • BetterMediaBrowser should now show up in the list of available packages. Click the corresponding 'Install' button and follow the instructions to complete the installation.

Build it from source

To build and install the package from source, use the build.transport.php PHP script in the _build folder. Before using it, copy the build.config.sample.php file in the _build folder to build.config.php and change the path to the core folder of an existing MODX installation. To debug the package in this existing MODX installation, install the package there using the build.bootstrap.php PHP script in the _build folder.
