What is a Cpanel webserver?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPanel

Can I use my existing corporate website, and do I need a Cpanel?

- In most cases you can. It does not necessarily need to be a Cpanel installation

What FTP folders are needed?

- One for each rep e.g. rep01, rep02, rep05, then one for corporate e.g. corp01, these names are your choice. The following folder names are mandatory in version 1.0.1. Under each rep you will need "sqldata","logo","data". Under the corp you will need "data". Under the root folder of your web site you will need "prod"

I do not have a website, how much will one cost to setup?

- We suggest you contact a local hosting provider, in Australia we recommend:

http://www.planetdomain.com

I have created FTP folders for my reps, are these secure?

- You should add a security .htaccess file to each folder to ensure that these folders remain private (however, do not use this in the prod folder) e.g.: http://www.vorderentry.com/security/htaccess.txt

I have an FTP account that has the user name john@myweb.com but cannot access my site, can you help?

- The use of @ in not permitted, most FTP accounts will accept the + character instead of a @, most internet providers supply an alternative to using @

When my product or client data contains the character ~, why is the email and upload data display distorted ?

- As with @ in FTP access, the ~ character is a special one in VOE, used to manage field seperation, if we receive sufficent requests, we will provide a solution where you can configure your own field seperator.

I have added my product images to my website location:http://www.myweb.com/prod/ with e.g. the format Spanner77.JPG but this displays a blank page, why ?

- Product images must be named in lower case and use the .gif format, the format is "mystockcode.gif" , this control may also be relaxed if we have sufficient requests.
