Installation - v2.4

The following methods of installation were tested on clean installs of EditorMonkey. I manually deleted all traces of existing EditorMonkey installations to verify the veracity of these instructions. 
 
=== Installation - Method 1 =======

   1. Uncompress the EditorMonkey zip archive to your HARDDRIVE.
   2. Use an FTP or SSH program to upload editormonkey.php and editormonkey/ to your wp-content/plugins/ directory.
   3. Make sure the file permissions for the editormonkey/ directory, the editormonkey/fckeditor/ directory, and the editormonkey/tinymce/ directory are set to 755 or 777 (all read, all execute).
         1. Most FTP/SSH programs will automatically do this for you when you upload files, but make sure of this.


=== Installation - Method 2 =======
 
   1. Upload editormonkey.zip to wp-content/plugins/.
   2. Uncompress it into this directory.
   3. Use chmod, set the file permissions for the editormonkey/ to 755 or 777.
   4. Do steps 5-8 from Method 1. 


=== Configuration =======

   5. Activate the plugin from within WordPress.
   6. EditorMonkey will attempt to set all the default settings. It will disable the built-in rich editor, override individual user preferences, etc.
         1. By default, TinyMCE will be the EditorMonkey interface. A default set of plugins will be chosen for you, based on the contents of the WordPress toolbar button set. Jacuba will be the default spell checker.
         2. You must configure uploading, advanced spell checking, and comment form capabilities manually, using the EditorMonkey options page.
   7. File Uploads: You will need to enable uploading from the Options>EditorMonkey page, and specify the paths to your upload directory.
         1. You must create the directory for uploading files, as directories created by PHP on incorrectly configured servers will belong to a mysterious "nobody" user, which would prevent uploading. Make sure to set all the upload directories to 777.
               1. YOURUPLOADDIRECTORY/
               2. YOURUPLOADDIRECTORY/File
               3. YOURUPLOADDIRECTORY/Flash
               4. YOURUPLOADDIRECTORY/Image
               5. YOURUPLOADDIRECTORY/Media
         2. Make sure to point the absolute path to the server-based path for the upload directory, ie, /home/user/WEBSITEDIR/UPLOADDIRECTORY/
         3. Make sure to point the relative path to the web-based path for the upload directory, ie, http://www.yourwebsite.com/UPLOADDIRECTORY/
   8. Spell Checking:
         1. Jacuba is recommended. It is the default spell checker.
         2. If you have access to your server's configuration, you can select the faster, more powerful Speller Pages spell checker, which uses aspell. To use Speller Pages and aspell:
               1. Disable Safe Mode in php.ini.
               2. Remove shell_exec from the list of disabled functions in php.ini
               3. Specify the location to the local aspell binary on your server in the Options>EditorMonkey page.
