Things You Need

  • Email
  • Computer (a phone can be used, but it’s harder)
  • A good internet connection
  • A cup of coffee (optional ☕)

1. Download PHP-Proxy

Open this link: https://www.php-proxy.com

Then click the link under this text:

For those who do not have access to shell, for example, people on a shared hosting environment, would need to download a pre-installed version of php-proxy, and then upload it to their web-server.

Download the pre-installed ZIP file.

2. Register for an InfinityFree Account

Create an InfinityFree account using your email.

3. Create a Hosting Account

  • Click Create Account on InfinityFree
  • Click Create Now
  • You may get a CAPTCHA — complete it and wait

4. Choose a Domain Name

  • Pick a short domain name

  • Examples:

    • cdn-4383
    • signup-383732
    • apn-hg7deh

5. Check Availability

  • Click Check Availability
  • If it’s available, continue
  • If not, change the name and try again

6. Finish Account Setup

  1. Under the Email Consent dropdown, select I approve
  2. Do not change the password (the default is fine)
  3. Wait for account activation

Once activated, you should be redirected to the dashboard.

Change it to:

$config['app_key'] = 'YOUR_PASSWORD';

Do the same for:

$config['encryption_key'] = '';

Then Save and Close.
