pre sales question

Ok, I have a few questions.

1- I understand you will not perform the installation, I have never edited a .php file...ever. Can you please be specific where to input the path line?

2- What are the major differences between the lite and the pro?

3- Are these (lite and pro) server intensive?

Thanks in advance!

Let me try question # 1 a different way, is this is the php file,
would this be correst????

Code:

define(http://www.greenpassion.org/);

1: The part you change is the part in blue bold. It is to be changed to the server path for your forum directory, not an HTTP link, and it is easy enough to determine if you do not know it:

Code:

define('PHOTOPLOG_FWD','/full/path/to/forum');

2:The pro version has a lot more features than the lite version. There is a lite demo here and a pro demo here.

3: The lite version is good if you expect your gallery to remain small, and while I haven't done any benchmark testing, I would guess that pro is less server intensive than lite as pro allows for more static image links and has had its queries optimized. You can find page generation time and the number of queries run in the footer of the pages on this site. These values are representative of this site only, as your site, server, and/or number of modifications may be different, but they should at least give you an idea as to intensity in relation to this site.

Morgan, thank you for the reply.
I suppose I would need advice on how to determine the correct server path.
I believe I would want to purchase the pro version.

I am hoping we can expedite this by the beginning of the week, I'll be back monday and I'll make my purchase....it looks like a great product!
Thanks for your help.

Copy the following into a file named whatismypath.php and FTP it into your main forum directory, then call it from your browser, and it should tell you the server path:

Code:

<?php echo getcwd(); ?>

See you next week. :)
