## Installation

Unzip the lighton.1.2.0.zip at your plugin directory.
 Activate the plugin through
the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress

Lighttpd users have to adjust their configuration as follows.

    ```
    server.modules += ( "mod_status" )
    $HTTP["remoteip"] =~ "127.0.0.1" {
        status.status-url = "/server-status"
    }
    ```

Apache users have to adjust their configuration as follows:

    ```
    LoadModule status_module libexec/apache2/mod_status.so
    "Location /server-status"
        SetHandler server-status
        Order deny,allow
        Deny from all
        Allow from 127.0.0.1
    "/Location"  

    ExtendedStatus On 
    ```

For more check your lighttpd or apache documentation.

After activation you can drag and drop the widget on your sidebar.

On the setup page you can choose your own templates for dashboard, widget and detail
page.
 For this upload your own templates as php-files to the templates directory
and choose it. Start your template filename with ‘customer_’ please. I’ll will never
use this prefix and your templates are save for overwrite in later versions.
