## ⚙️ Installation
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. **Create directory & set permissions**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```bash
|
|||
|
|
sudo mkdir -p /var/www/html/funnies/uploads
|
|||
|
|
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/funnies
|
|||
|
|
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/funnies
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
2. **Set up the admin password**
|
|||
|
|
Generate a bcrypt hash:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```bash
|
|||
|
|
php -r 'echo password_hash("YourStrongPassword", PASSWORD_DEFAULT), PHP_EOL;'
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Then place that hash inside `admin/config.php` under:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```php
|
|||
|
|
$ADMIN_PASS_HASH = '$2y$10$replace_with_real_hash';
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
3. **Initialize the database**
|
|||
|
|
Visit:
|
|||
|
|
`https://yourdomain.com/funnies/admin/init_db.php`
|
|||
|
|
Or run the init script via command-line:
|
|||
|
|
`php init_db.php`
|
|||
|
|
It will create the `comics` table or confirm if it already exists.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
4. **Upload a comic**
|
|||
|
|
Visit:
|
|||
|
|
`https://yourdomain.com/funnies/admin/auth.php`
|
|||
|
|
Log in and use the form to upload images and descriptions.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
5. **View your comics**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* Main gallery: `https://yourdomain.com/funnies/`
|
|||
|
|
* Iframe feed: `https://yourdomain.com/funnies/funnies-frame.php`

## 🪄 Embedding the Funnies Frame
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The iframe viewer (`funnies-frame.php`) is optimized for small layouts (≈ 325 px).
|
|||
|
|
Example embed:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```html
|
|||
|
|
<iframe src="https://mentalnet.xyz/funnies/funnies-frame.php"
|
|||
|
|
width="325"
|
|||
|
|
height="500"
|
|||
|
|
frameborder="0"
|
|||
|
|
scrolling="yes"
|
|||
|
|
style="border-radius:8px;overflow:hidden;">
|
|||
|
|
</iframe>
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> 💡 You can adjust image width inside `funnies-frame.php` (default: 250 px for compact display).

## 🛡 Security Notes
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* Only the admin section (`/admin/`) requires authentication.
|
|||
|
|
* Use strong passwords and HTTPS.
|
|||
|
|
* The upload form restricts to images only.
|
|||
|
|
* SQLite DB and uploads folder should be owned by `www-data` with 755 perms.
|
|||

## 🧩 Customization Ideas
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* Add a “View All Comics →” link inside the iframe version.
|
|||
|
|
* Include navigation buttons (Next / Previous comic).
