How to install a SourceBans++ release version

The easiest way of installing SourceBans++ is to use a release version, since those come bundled with all requiered code dependencies and pre-compiled sourcemod plugins.

The quickstart guide gives you a detailed walktrough of the installation process.

How to install the current master branch version

The master branch doesn't include the required dependencies or compiled plugins you need to run SourceBans++. Here is a quick summary of getting the master branch code up and running.

Installing webpanel dependencies

• Follow the quickstart guide and upload the webpanel files to your web server
• Install composer - Installation Guide
• Go to the root of your SourceBans++ installation (where index.php is located)
• run composer install

After successfully installing all dependencies you can procede with the quickstart guide.

PHP 8.1 major changes

Upgrade

If you ran the installer, this step is unnecessary.

Upgrading from 1.6/1.7, requires a new configuration value to be set. To do this, please run the upgrade.php script. Once done, delete it, as it may output sensitive information.

Smarty

Updated Smarty version dropped support for the {php} tag.

Custom themes must use the new {load_template} tag.

JWT Update

If you ran the installer or upgrade file, this step is unecessary.
JWT secrets are no longer stored in the database as they are generated using a secret key.
