My answer to "Do I get points for asking questions"

This is my answer to a Question on Support site for LampCMS project


You don't get points for posting questions. You get points when someone upvotes your question or your answer or more points when someone accepts your answer as a correct answer. You also get 2 points when you accept someone's answer.

My answer to "Any news on ad network integration?"

This is my answer to a Question on Support site for LampCMS project


What exactly is required in order to insert ads? I mean you can just modify a template an insert a piece of code like javascript or some static link to an ad.

As for inserting ads in search results that would require some additional code to be written, but for inserting ads in side bar or any other part of the site you can just insert the code in the template.

If you are running Lampcms in debug mode (configurable in !config.ini) then template names are added to the html code, just view the source code on the page and you will see exactly what templates are being used for assembling the page.

You can then find these templates and modify them.

My answer to "What value for POSTFIX_PATH?"

This is my answer to a Question on Support site for LampCMS project


Usually when you have postfix installed on linux the path to /usr/sbin/sendmail is actually pointing to postfix because postfix is installed in such a way that it replaces sendmail seamlessly.

I would leave it as default and only if you are having problems with sending out emails you can try to modify that path.

My answer to "Can I change the name of the www folder?"

This is my answer to a Question on Support site for LampCMS project


Try this: do not alias www as something else, instead just rename the www to something else.
For example, rename the www directory to 'myforum'
then just access your lampcms installation as yourdomain.com/myforum/index.php

I'm pretty sure it will work. Aliasing does not work because the script has no way of knowing that you are accessing the www directory by a different name.

But if you actually rename the www to something else then script will pick up the real path.

My answer to "is lampcms php 5.4 ready?"

This is my answer to a Question on Support site for LampCMS project


I have not tried it, so the best advice I can give is to try and report any errors you may be getting.
I am not planning to run in on 5.4 because I specifically want Lampcms to run on 5.3 because most web hosts will not be upgrading to 5.4 or 5.5 soon and having min version requirement of 5.3 is a good thing for now.

Again, I don't see any problems with running it on 5.4
