Hi

We are looking at rebuilding our website http://www.englishelectricpreservation.co.uk with soholaunch that comes with the web package from hostpapa.

But have some questions :

1. The photo gallery that comes with it, is this the basic one that can only add 25 pics to each gallery or is it the premium gallery as it is $49 to buy the premium gallery.

2. Can you use Colorbox, Floatbox or Shadowbox with soholaunch.

3. Does anyone also know if my header and background can be transported over to a site built with soholaunch.


Thanks for any help
Tony

Hi Tony,

I don't see a problem in incorporating your website header and background into a Soholaunch built site. You will probably need a certain amount of css and html knowledge to incorporate the background, and it also very much depends upon the template you choose. The header graphic is very easily changed through the Soho admin interface.

I am not sure about your specific questions regarding Colorbox etc and as Marc suggested you should probably try the Soho forum for specifics like that.

As far as I am aware the basic Soho package comes with a basic photo gallery and you will need to purchase adons for anything more fancy...however with my Soho built site I incorporated the Coppermine photo gallery and it can be found here: http://www.shpangle.co.uk/gallery/

You can do so much with it and it is FREE! It is very straight forward to incorporate it into an existing website and can be customised to suit. It has lots of features (most of which I don't take advantage of) such as photo commenting, rating, individual user albums etc etc. It also has a very good support forum and loads of adons etc.

Hope that helps

Mick
