Original guide here (cloned for safe keeping)

First grab the Meneame files here: http://meneame.net/archives/meneame-src.tgz

1. Extract files and ftp to www folder
2. Use phpMyAdmin to create a database and user that can access that database
3. Execute the sql below in the table you created.
4. Using phpMyAdmin to add some categories the categories table. Categories must have a value of 1 or more. If you want to create sub-categories, put the category_id of the parent as the category_parent value of the sub-category.



5. Edit libs/db.php and fill in the user/password/database info

* notes
- The linking is absolute to root, so you will probably have to put the files in www.yoursite.com/index.php, not www.yoursite.com/mydiggsite/index.php

Or come back in a day or so and we’ll put a version up with proper linking.

Wow, thats a hardcore 100% digg clone.. for those who dont know the sites: http://meneame.net/

never heard of digg clone? What is it?

1. thanks, i didnt know how to install and i started getting mad. thanks
2. to above, it is a site that works like digg. a clone of digg.com..

I am getting an error when I try to do this.
I click on the SQL tab in phpmyadmin and paste the code in that box and click GO and it gives an error. please help

good job man, thanks for the app

I got it to work, but then gives **** loads of other erros. this is really crap!

Well you need to make some configuration.. but then it really works..

I got mine to work and have it up and running. You can check it here: www.staralicious.com

It can be a little tricky on some server configurations, it must also be in the root directory of your web server. You also may have to make some changes to your .htaccess file.

podigle

What version does this thing use? I have been trying to use that SQL and get error after error. Im getting frustrated.

Pligg is a branch of Meneame translated to english and has an active community behind it.

My favorite digg clone, is http://leetdaily.com. It's a news site strictly for gaming, but puts a twist on diggs by giving articles a Leet Percentage Rating. Really cool and innovative.

Thats incredible!
