    Default difference between the full version and the lite version

    My apologies if this has been answered else where.
    What are the major differences between the lite version and the full 3.1 version? I use In-Link on a few other of my directory sites but have liked what I have read about IndexU other than a few support related gripes that hopefully were exaggerated?

    Thanks,
    David

    In v3.1 but not in free version:
    users
    editors
    favorite control panel
    mailings
    sponsor links

    The free version will do a very credible job if you need a basic links program but the extra features of v3.1 make it quite powerful. Both are very easy to customize.

    Any publically distributed software will have a few bugs and some some folks that don't like it. But INDEXU has relatively few bugs and a growing number of enthusiastic supporters .

    The only real gripes ( or maybe a better word would be "requests" ) are the ones for additional features to help the webmaster make money although there are 3rd party alternatives that can possibly be integrated with INDEXU ( for example I hacked a shopping cart from another company into INDEXU and will work on another shopping cart this comming week ).

    Dody does a very good job of support and we do have some pretty knowledgeable users. But we need more "heavy hitters" ( i.e., more experts ). We need more hacks/plugins and expert help.

    The one thing that you can see is that the main method of support is by forum - a public forum not hidden behind a "members only" area. If you have good software then it will stand up to public scrutiny. And INDEXU is pretty good software

    Thanks for your answers and I very much like the forum type support such as you find here, vbulletin and other places. It makes me feel much more comfortable knowing there is a group of people I can turn to, in addition to the developter, to ask questions.
    I'll be buying the full version later today.
    Thanks!

    I think you will be well pleased with your purchase of INDEXU. I know I am!
