    What files/folders can be removed

    Can anyone tell me what files and folders can be safely removed from the ZC 1.3.0.2 upload, so as to leave a complety blank site, if the demo features are not going to be used i.e Hewlett Packard, Microsoft ?

    Best Regards

    all that can really be removed is the product and category images

    other than that all the demo information gets input into the DB

    Thanks for your reply

    other than that all the demo information gets input into the DB
    This seems to make the Store Setup choice

    If you would like to install the demo data, select yes.
    pretty pointless if it is going to put everything in the database anyway. Or am I missing something here ?

    if you tell it no it will NOT add the demo user,
    products and categories,
    attributes and such

    the images get uploaded automatically for the simple fact that if they tried to use php to determin the images that are uploaded you get into the issue of NOBODY

    the demo sql is in the install folder and you will delete that as soon as install is done anyway

    Thanks Merlin

    I get it now, reason for asking was that I have (after advice from DrByte), set up two seperate instances of ZC, 1 for demo which I have completed installation of and 1 for Live products which I haven't yet set up.

    And when I looked at the Database and the storefront for the Demo, there is tons of stuff that I will not need or want on the Live Site.The site owner only has 6 downloadable Products currently.

    Best Regards
