VOTETALLY 0.1 - CPANEL DEMO DEPLOYMENT
======================================

Target: demo.votetally.net
Requirement: PHP 8.1+ (PHP 8.3 confirmed), Apache mod_rewrite, HTTPS.

1. In cPanel > Domains, note the Document Root for demo.votetally.net.
2. In File Manager, open that exact Document Root.
3. Remove only any default placeholder index.html/index.php created for the subdomain.
4. Upload this ZIP into the Document Root.
5. Extract it in place. IMPORTANT: the contents of the folder must sit directly in
   the Document Root. You should see index.php, .htaccess, assets, and _private there.
6. Ensure hidden files are visible in File Manager so .htaccess is present.
7. Visit https://demo.votetally.net/live
8. Login at https://demo.votetally.net/login

Demo accounts (all use password Demo!2026):
- agent@votetally.demo
- verifier@votetally.demo
- admin@votetally.demo

Security notes:
- _private is blocked by Apache and contains the datastore and original uploads.
- Uploaded evidence is streamed through PHP; files are not linked directly.
- This is a synthetic-data SALES DEMO only, not production election infrastructure.
