When we last left our Savvy saga we were facing installation. Again the great documentation made installation a breeze and sums up the steps required nicely:
Savvy CM installation is very easy. There are no installation programs to be run on the server, instead you copy your files to the web server, modify the includes.cfm file with the correct information for your installation, register the database in ColdFusion, then upload your templates.
There are a few things you need to consider. Savvy includes an application.cfm file so if you are installing Savvy into an existing application (which is possible) you need to take some additional steps in order to allow the use of the Savvy application.cfm. Again these are outlined in details in the online docs.
Next you modify a file, includes.cfm, in which you define you datasource, some path information, site name and description and some other general settings. Next you run a diagnostic utility which will check your configuration, verify your datasources and warn you if you need to fix anything. If all looks well you can then use the same diagnostic page to create your database.
The few glitches I encountered during installation and configuration were all covered in the documentation.
Once you have Savvy installed and configured the next step is to create a template!

FYI, the next version we will be finally changing over to Application.cfc. Lots more config options, and flexibility for devs as well. This is available for beta right now, but not officially released. :-)
