Find the line `$USERS = array( 'UserName1'=>'Password1', etc)` and replace Username1 and Password1 with your desired username and password #* Make sure you leave all the punctuation and code, such as the single quotes, intact # Save the file # Using FTP or your web interface, upload ''store.php'' to your server. Make sure that the filename is correct #* If you've uploaded the file correctly you should be able to view it in your browser (eg, http://example.com/store.php) # In TiddlyWiki, go to the ''Saving'' tab of the ''control panel'' {{$:/core/images/options-button}} and enter the following information: #* Your username as the wiki name #* Your password #* The URL of the ''store.php'' file (//''not'' the URL of the wiki, this must the full URL to the ''store.php'' file//) The control panel ''Saving'' tab includes the following configuration options: |!Name |!Description | |Server URL |The full URL to the ''store.php'' file on your server | |Upload filename |The filename used to save the TiddlyWiki (defaults to ''index.html'') | |Upload directory |The relative path from ''store.php'' to the directory used for saving the file | |Backup directory |The relative path from ''store.php'' to the directory used for backups | !!! Note about maximum size As your TW file increases in size, you may need to modify your `.htaccess` or `htaccess` file (depending on system) to increase the value of the maximum upload and/or post size. Check with your Web Host Provider for your particular settings. Be sure also to make backups before experiementing. On some systems, the settings might look like: ``` php_value upload_max_filesize 4M php_value post_max_size 6M ```
