As there are no youtube videos or much more in the getting started guide, i thought this might help

  1. upload sendy via ftp to yourdomain.com/sendy
  2. log into cpanel and create a new mySQL database https://my.justhost.com/cgi/help/6
  3. add a user to the database and create a pass
  4. only then, you can populate the config.php file!

in cpanel, go to MySQL Account Maintenance click on the new account at the top in bold you will see:

User: YOURUSERYOUJUSTCREATED

Database: YOURDBYOUJUSTCREATED

$dbHost = 'localhost'; //mySQL Hostname

$dbUser = 'USERNAME GOES HERE'; //mySQL

$dbPass = 'YOUR PASS GOES HERE'; //mySQL

$dbName = 'YOUR DB NAME GOES HERE'; //mySQL

define('APP_PATH', 'http://www.THE WHOLE SITE URL GOES HERE WITH THE HTTP AND WWW');

TIPS: make sure it's in between the apostrophe

Done!

Now i can bug ben about other things. Hope this helps someone out! :)
