 * I am having trouble just activating the plugin Rencontre. I have already uploaded
   the zip into the correct folder and then, went to upload the file in admin section
   because the plugin didn’t show up in the plugin section of dashboard. I got a
   message that file is too big for php.ini.

 * Hi,
    1. If you have access to your PHP.ini file, change the line in PHP.ini
        If your
       line shows 32M try 64M or 128M: memory_limit = 128M ; Maximum amount of memory
       a script may consume (128MB)
    2. If you don’t have access to PHP.ini try adding this to an .htaccess file:
        php_value
       memory_limit 128M.
    3. Try adding this line to your wp-config.php file:
        Increasing memory allocated
       to PHP define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘128M’);
    4. Talk to your host.
 * These days, even 128MB can be “tight” as plugins, themes and WordPress itself
   keep growing.

 * I managed to activate the plugin. Now, is there a step by step instruction manual
   and/or video on how to setup the different aspects of the website plugin’s features(
   home page, registration page, webcam, member login page, member account profile,
   and so on)?

 * Hi,
 * You have the [installation instruction](https://wordpress.org/plugins/rencontre/installation/).
   Nothing more.
 * Home page, registration page, member login page are specific to WordPress, not
   to Rencontre.
    The webcam part has nothing to setup. Profiles are very easy to
   setup.
 * Regards,
