MapBBCodeShare is a tool used to embed maps on websites using BBCode. You can install MapBBCodeShare on Windows 11 using the following steps:
Before installing MapBBCodeShare, you need to install WampServer on your Windows 11 computer. You can download WampServer from their official website https://www.wampserver.com/en/. Make sure to download the correct version for your system architecture.
Visit https://github.com/MapBBCode/share.mapbbcode.org and download the latest version of MapBBCodeShare.
Copy the downloaded MapBBCodeShare package to the www directory in your WampServer root directory. The WampServer root directory is generally located at C:\wamp64\www.
Extract the zip file of the MapBBCodeShare package into the www directory.
Rename the extracted MapBBCodeShare directory to mapbb.
Start WampServer by navigating to the wamp64/bin directory and clicking on the wampmanager.exe file.
Open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost/phpmyadmin/. Click on the Databases tab and create a new database named mapbb.
In the mapbb database, click on the Import tab and select the mapbb.sql file located in the mapbb directory. Then, click on the Go button to import the database schema.
Open the index.php file located in the mapbb directory using a text editor. Modify the $cfg['basedir'] variable to match the absolute path to the mapbb directory.
Open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost/mapbb/. If you see the MapBBCodeShare interface, then everything is working correctly.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed MapBBCodeShare on your Windows 11 computer.
