simple installation process. help needed
Hello all,
I've developed a piece of web-software with php.
I want to make an easy installation using NSIS.
All I need is a script that will extract my scripts and some empty folders to a known directory.
I've tried to look at the manual but don't have really the time to mess with that. just a small example will do how do I compress my data and then extract it to the right place.
The manual said it was an easy operation so I thought it worth a shot asking here for a quick example.
Thank you all

There are examples in the Examples folder. Example1.nsi does exactly that with a directory it asks for from the user. Simply remove Page directory and change $INSTDIR to the known directory.

I don't have an examples folder...
Where does it suppose to be located?

In the folder you've installed NSIS. If you don't have it, you can reinstall NSIS and select all of the options. But make a backup of your NSIS folder first, so nothing you might need will be overwritten.
