The mobile client applications require Omeka to be installed and configured according to the following guide.

##Required Files##

##Site Settings##

  • Complete all site settings listed under /admin/settings that do not already have a default value.
  • In most cases, you will want to leave the default settings unchanged where applicable.
  • Ensure that your path to ImageMagick is correct by pressing the 'Test' button. The default is /usr/bin/.

##Themes## Install and activate the Curatescape theme. For more information about Omeka themes, see: [Getting Started with Themes (Omeka.org)](http://omeka.org/codex/Getting_Started_with_Themes Omeka.org).

Activate the theme in /admin/themes/ and press the 'Configure' button to edit your theme settings. There are many settings to be configured in the Curatescape theme. Pay close attention to the description/instructions below each field.

##Plugins## Install and activate the required 'Curatescape' plugins. See Curatescape README file on Github for current list of required plugins. For more information about Omeka plugins, see: [Getting Started with Plugins (Omeka.org)] (http://omeka.org/codex/Getting_Started_with_Plugins ).
