  THEME_PATHS = 'eventframe/themes'
  
  # You need to have client-id/secret from LastUser.

  LASTUSER_CLIENT_ID = '....'
  LASTUSER_CLIENT_SECRET = '...'

  ...

  If you want to start the app on a different port, pass the port as argument.

  $ python runserver.py 8080
   * Running on http://0.0.0.0:8080/

  ...

• Create first website

  • Visit http://0.0.0.0:8080/ (substitute your port here).
  • Click on "Login or Sign up" link in the top-right corner.
  • After login, visit http://0.0.0.0:8080/_new and create new website by filling in the following details:
    • Title: Hello Eventframe # Title of the wesite
    • URL name: hello-eventframe # slug for the website
    • Website URL: http://127.0.0.1:8080/
    • Hostnames: 127.0.0.1

• Adding pages

  • Visit http://0.0.0.0:8080/hello-eventframe/
  • Click on "+New -> Page"
  • Add Title and Page Content. Leave URL Name empty as we are adding the root page.
  • Click Save.
  • Visit http://127.0.0.1:8080/ to the view the newly added page.
  • You can add more pages by following above steps.

One eventframe instance can serve multiple websites and each website is attached to one hostname. In the above setup, we are using http://0.0.0.0:8080/ for the admin panel and http://127.0.0.1:8080/ for the website that we have created. You can try creating another website and set Hostname to localhost.
