Support: @fluid_dev on discord

Prerequisites:

• A running Minecraft server with StrikePractice plugin installed.
• MySQL database service operational on your server or hosting.
• Access to your server files via FTP or a file manager provided by your hosting service.

Step 1: Enable MySQL in StrikePractice Before proceeding with the statistics addon setup, ensure that MySQL is enabled within the StrikePractice plugin:

1. Navigate to the plugins/StrikePractice/ directory on your server.
2. Open the config.yml file with a text editor.
3. Locate the section for MySQL settings and change the mysql: option to true.
4. Fill in your MySQL database credentials (host, port, username, password, database) in the respective fields.

Step 2: Install the Statistics Addon

1. Download the StrikePractice Website Statistics Addon from the official repository or marketplace.
2. Upload the addon to your server's plugins/ directory.
3. Restart the server to load the addon.

Step 3: Configure the Statistics Addon

1. After the server restarts, the addon will generate its own config.yml file in its directory.
2. Open the config.yml file for the Statistics Addon.
3. Copy the MySQL credentials from the StrikePractice config.yml to the addon's config.yml to ensure they match.

Step 4: Secure config.yml

To secure the config.yml file of your Statistics Addon:

Access your server's file system and navigate to the directory containing config.yml.

If you're using Apache, create a .htaccess file in the same directory and add the following lines:

<Files "config.php">
Order Allow,Deny
Deny from all
</Files>

If you're on an Nginx server, add the following to your server configuration:

location ~* /path/to/your/config\.yml$ {
deny all;
return 404;
}
</Files>

Replace /path/to/your/ with the actual path to the config.yml file.

Step 5: Verify Installation

1. Once the config.yml is set up and secured, navigate to your website and access the statistics page.
2. Verify that the statistics are being correctly displayed and that there are no error messages
