Deploying ElmapiCMS
This section provides guides for deploying your ElmapiCMS application to various hosting environments.
Pick the path that matches how you bought the product and where you host.
CodeCanyon
You already have everything in your download:
Elmapi3.zip— full Laravel app (for example to create a Git remote for Laravel Cloud or other Git-based hosts).Elmapi3Cpanel.zip— the packaged layout for shared hosting (primary domain and subdomain).
GitHub (direct purchase)
Two rules keep deployment clear and under your control:
- Do not connect hosting to the private repository you were invited to. PaaS and VPS setups that pull from Git must use your fork of that repository (see Deploy on Laravel Cloud). The private upstream is for access to code and releases—not as the remote your server deploys from.
- Shared hosting does not use a Git deploy on the server. Download
Elmapi3Cpanel.zipfrom the Releases page of the repository you have access to and follow Deploy on shared hosting. That archive is built for upload and extract on typical shared hosts (cPanel, Plesk, and similar panels).
For local development you still clone the private repo (or your fork); see Installation → GitHub.
