If I can figure out how to fix a couple things, I wont have a problem donating. But I have spent nearly 5 hours trying different things and I still have a broken website. First of all, I wanted to install on the root directory instead of having to install to a folder called recipes. When I installed the script to this directory, it wouldn't work. The CSS and Images would not load. I had to uninstall and reinstall to 'recipe' without the 's' and it worked. But now, I have to write a redirect to the /recipe folder and if I do this, the Flash images wont work unless I click on the menu. I removed some of the images because I was creating others but labeled the same one 1-5.
The domain is http://veganpro.com
Also I cannot get Friendly URLs to work no matter what I've tried. I've renamed the .htaccess and enabled the setting in the admin and get 'You have enabled search engine friendly urls in the settings, but have not read the documentation correctly!!!' but I have combed over and over and over the documentation. I cannot get it to work.
Some help would be awesome....but this is free so I do not expect much. Maybe someone other than the author could help me.
Thank you

Hello,
You should be able to install into the root with no problems. Sounds like the path you set in the settings was incorrect. If the base path is wrong, the images and css won`t load, nor will the flash.
Did you set the path as:
http://veganpro.com/
As for '.htaccess' are you sure the file is just named '.htaccess'? With NO file extension. If you renamed the .txt file it could be that it still has the .txt extension? Worth checking that first.
I`m really glad you like my script, thank you.

Hi yes I've checked this and it does indeed have a trailing slash in settings. But it's not in the root path i.e. http://veganpro.com/
I created a folder called http://veganpro.com/recipe/ and made sure the trailing slash is there. I've put the redirect in the .htaccess and yeah, there's no extension. If I enable friendly URLS it kills the script and give me that message. So far me and my partner, who is really good at .php hasn't been able to figure out this problem.
I'd like to try one more time and see if I can't get this to install to the root like you say. This might fix the problem....I don't know. All I know is that I tried to install to the root and for some reason, the images and CSS would not show, even though the path was correct with trailing slash. And by the way, Google is funny about pages marked with trailing slash and will count those pages as duplicates. So in other words, it will see http://veganpro.com/recipe AND it will see http://veganpro.com/recipe/ and mark those pages as duplicates and slap you silly. There's a way to fix this though if you add this to the .htaccess
# Trailing slash killer
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.*)$
RewriteRule ^(.+)/$ http://www.enteryoursitehere.com/$1 [R=301,L]
I'm hoping I can figure out the problems.
Thank you

Strange that the message appears if the file is correctly in place. If you have no joy send me your details and I`ll have a look. I`m kind of curious myself.

Thanks a million ^_^

Well I was able to get everything to work properly, .htaccess and all and installed on the root this time. However there is still a problem with the Flash headers not loading when you first reach the page. If you click on anything in the menu, they will load and be fine. If you close the browser (Using Firefox 5) and go back to the page, you get a 'Load Fail' message.
Any idea what's causing this?
Thanks!
