Crane setting
Before launching the created site into operation, it is necessary to configure it. The settings you need are in the config.php file, which is already downloaded along with the archive. There are two ways to edit this file:
You can do this on your own computer, and then upload it to the hosting.
The same can be done in the hosting file manager.
To do this, you will need to correct the information placed in quotation marks in the following lines of the file:
$dbhost = "xxx" (you need to enter the server name).
$dbuser = "xxx" (specify the name of the database user).
$dbname = "xxx" (enter the name of the database).
$dbpass = "xxx" (enter the password for this database).
Since you will have to make a Bitcoin faucet yourself, you need to take into account that the hosting used may not have the data that is entered in the server name line. Then no changes should be made. After finishing editing, you need to save the changes and try to enter the site. In the inscription “Welcome to your faucet” that appears, you can see the password from the admin panel of the new site, which should also be kept in a safe place.
Then you need to click on the "Click here to continue" button and enter the password. In this way, you will be able to enter the administration section of your faucet in order to change the settings if necessary.
Before you complete the creation and configuration of a Bitcoin faucet, you need to register it on the FaucetBox website. This operation makes it possible to replenish the faucet's cash balance and provides access to important statistical information, such as payout statistics. In order to register, you should click on the link “Manage faucets”, and then fill in all the fields in the form that appears.
In the future, it will be possible to enter the administrative part of the site using a login and password. The menu located there will allow you to perform the following actions:
Examine the statistical information on the crane.
Get information about which addresses you can replenish the balance of the site after you manage to create a faucet for distributing Bitcoins yourself.
Get an IP key. To do this, go to the "Your faucets" link and click on the "Create new faucet" button. In the menu that will open after that, you will need to specify the name of the site and click the "Add faucets" (Add faucets) button. After that, the name of your faucet will appear in the list located in the "Your faucets" menu. Near the name of the faucet there will be a button "Manage" (Manage), by clicking on which you can enter the management menu. You can get an IP key in it, and then copy it to the appropriate field in the site admin panel.
Confirm the faucet ownership, after which its name will appear in the general list of sites.
After all the above steps are completed, we can congratulate you on the fact that you managed to create a Bitcoin faucet yourself. After that, your resource will be verified by the FaucetBox service administrator. This is a standard operation and all faucets listed on this site are subject to regular checks. Upon completion of the verification, the name of the faucet will appear in the list of faucets used by visitors who collect Satoshi on free resources. And this means that visitors will now definitely come to your faucet. Recall that a prerequisite for the inclusion of an online resource in the list is a positive balance of payments.
And you just have to watch the development of your site and make a profit!
