OpenTorrentSite

A modern torrent search engine/website template that is easy to setup with an intuitive GUI. Engineered to be one of the easiest to use torrent website out there. This site doesn't scrape torrents from any sources, it's only a template you can use to start hosting your own torrent site.

Design

Setup:

1. Copy & Paste all files to your webspace.
2. Set your webspace to PHP Version 7.0.
3. Create a folder called "torrents" in the root directory.
4. Setup a new MySQL database. For security purposes you should create a user with appropriate permissions.
5. Change the database credentials and website identification inside 'config/config.ini.php'.
6. Import "opentorrentsite.sql" from the 'sql' folder.

FAQ:

1. My seeders/leechers are always 0? Your hosting provider is blocking UDP requests or your torrent file has no trackers. (HTTP, HTTPS and UDP are supported; DHT is not supported)
2. I can't upload .torrent files? Create a torrents folder in the root directory. Also make sure you have adequate MySQL and Disk rights.
3. How do I make myself Administrator? Navigate to the users table in MySQL and set your uploaderstatus to 99
