noob question as I can't really find answers to these anywhere on the site, sorry as this is my first post but I'm panicking
first of all; How can I install add-on's without composer? there is literally no documentation I've found about this.
second of all; when I flush, it leaves me with a blank page; I've tried doing this instead http://mysite.com/test/index.php/dev/build?flush=all
It will give me some sort of a token in the address bar but a 404 page; am I doing it properly?
Strange, there used to be docs on this.
Extract the archive placing the folder into the SilverStripe install root (ie. next to assets/, framework/, etc.)
Ensure the folder is named correctly (usually involves stripping the 'silverstripe-' from the front)
dev/build
It seems like you're getting an error at build time.
Ensure php's display_errors is enabled, you should get some info on screen telling you where to look.
If not, try checking the logs (either PHP if it's set up, or generally the web server's error log has it too).
