[Hypomethic]

There are probably many tutorials out there on how to set this up. But people still have issues. So my objective here is to make an 100% idiot-proof tutorial to set it up.​

1.) Download the newest version of thehabbos_api.

2.) When you download it, it will be in a .zip format. You will need winrar to extract it.
Select the version that works with your computer. (32-Bit, or 64-Bit.)

3.) Extract it somewhere you can get to easily. Like your desktop.
Your file will look something like this.
(I recommend making a folder called "thehabbos_api." To keep it organized.

4.) Once extracted onto your desktop, open the folder. There will be 3 folders. Unless you are using a MAC, you only need to open the upload folder.

5.) Upload all the files within the upload folder, to your wwwroot directory.
(Where your cms is hosted.)

6.) Open the "habbos_api>config.php." and edit as follows, and then save it.

Where it says "$CONFIG['Username']." Put your username for thehabbos.org. If you are not registered, you can register

Where it says "$CONFIG['URL']." Put the link to where it is on your site. E.G "whateverhotel.com/api.php."

$CONFIG['Username'] = 'TheHabbos Username'; //thehabbos topsites username
$CONFIG['URL'] = '

//the location to the file api.php on your website (i.e.

)
If you are using xampp change "$CONFIG['Curl_Enabled']." From "1" to "0" If you arn't using Xampp then skip this step.

$CONFIG['Curl_Enabled'] = 1; //mark this 0 if cURL isn't installed/enabled on your server, although cURL is recommended
If you are running REVCMS then go to"thehabbos_api>types>client.php." And open it in notepad. click "edit>replace." where it says "Find What:" put "client.php" and where it says "Replace With:" put "client" Now just simply replace them all, then save it.

Lastly, open "thehabbos_api>core.lang.php" and replace the top of that page with

<?php
if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_CF_CONNECTING_IP'])) { $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] = $_SERVER['HTTP_CF_CONNECTING_IP']; }

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// # TheHabbos Topsites API Script - Release 1.0.3 //

Then save it.

Now all you need to do is open me.php and change the enter button to open "/api.php" instead of "/client" Then go to every other page that has an enter button on it, and do the same.

You should now have thehabbos_api setup!
