1. Choose a web hosting provider: You will need to choose a web hosting provider that meets the minimum system requirements for running Invoice Plane. Invoice Plane requires PHP 7.4 or later, MySQL 5.5 or later, and Apache or Nginx web server.

2. Download the latest version of Invoice Plane: You can download the latest version of Invoice Plane from the official website: https://invoiceplane.com/. You can choose to download either the full package or the upgrade package depending on whether you are installing Invoice Plane for the first time or upgrading an existing installation.

3. Upload the Invoice Plane files to your web server: You will need to upload the Invoice Plane files to your web server using an FTP client or file manager provided by your hosting provider.

4. Create a MySQL database: You will need to create a MySQL database and user for Invoice Plane to store its data. You can do this using your hosting provider's control panel or command-line tools like MySQL Workbench.

5. Configure the database settings: After creating the database, you will need to configure the database settings in the Invoice Plane configuration file. Locate the file named ipconfig.php in the root directory of Invoice Plane and modify the database settings.

6. Set file permissions: You will need to set the correct file permissions for the Invoice Plane to function properly. You can set the file permissions using an FTP client or SSH access to your server. The recommended file permissions are:

   • ipconfig.php: 600
   • uploads/: 755
   • application/logs/: 755
   • application/cache/: 755
   • assets/: 755

7. Access the Invoice Plane installer: Once the above steps are completed, you can access the Invoice Plane installer by navigating to the URL where you uploaded the files. The installer will guide you through the process of setting up your organization, users, and other settings.

8. Set up cron jobs: Invoice Plane requires some cron jobs to be set up to perform scheduled tasks such as sending email reminders, backups, and other tasks. You can refer to the documentation on the official website for instructions on setting up cron jobs.

Once the above steps are completed, you should have a fully functional installation of the Invoice Plane ready to use.
