Re: system inspection results

Those are minor matters. You can read more about their meaning by clicking the "click here for more info" link supplied.
In most cases you should be able to install fine regardless of those alerts.

Hi DrByte

thanks for answering I have uploaded and installed the zen-cart now
Just waiting for the book to arrive so I can start to change the appearance etc. so far I am impressed by the ease of it all and I am looking forward to creating our own look is it worth while using a template to change the overall look of the site I kinda like the look of Sophie blue

Re: system inspection results

Yes, it's definitely worth customizing the look to suit your own tastes.
Here are some articles on making your own templates: https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?category=4
If you have questions about a specific template, post them to that template's existing forum support thread.
If you have questions about customizing things for your own use, be sure to do a forum and FAQ search on those questions, and if you don't find an answer, start another thread with your question.
