Re: Demo new version
Actually, what I am trying to say is how can I demo it with the default demo settings without hurting the online shop? The default demo settings aren't working.

You need to create another database in your hosting control panel, and assign another user+password to it. Then you can use those credentials when running zc_install to set up your demo.

I got it. With Winmerge....ugh....alot of files to update, like hundreds to keep my changes? Looks like it will take a long tme, at least for me.
In your opinion Dr. Byte is it worth the upgrade?
