TV Garden & Radio PHP Script is a lightweight PHP script for creating a live TV and online radio directory website. It includes country-based browsing, category pages, SEO-friendly routes, responsive layout, and support for both live TV channels and radio stations.

The script is designed for simple hosting environments. It does not require a database and can be installed by uploading the files to a PHP hosting account. It works from a root domain, subdomain, or subfolder installation.

Channel and station data is loaded from an external GitHub-based data source. The included data source is public and external, so the script author is not responsible for channels that stop working, become geo-blocked, are removed, or change without notice. Buyers who want full control can fork or clone the data source into their own GitHub repository and update the script to use their own source.

The script also includes a small password-protected PHP admin file for managing local TV channel overrides. You can manually add custom TV channels, override the stream source of existing channels, hide channels from the website, edit the JSON directly, and clear local cache files after changes.

This item is best suited for users with basic PHP hosting knowledge, FTP or file manager access, and basic understanding of editing configuration files.
