Xamps will allow you to simulate running XOOPS on a server... it's handy to build and test a site, before making it public and before chosing a hosting service to use.

No one else will be able to use the site (- well not in most cases anyway! ) .. but you can get your development done.

LOL, everytime you think you've answered a question, 10 more will pop up.

By the type of questions asked I get the feel you are trying to jump from the ground up to the tenth rung of a ladder.

The best answer is to make Google your friend, whenever a question pops up, enter it in google. Odds are, you'll get a lot your answers.

Cheers.

Ed_Elric,

Please forgive the blunt question, but are you actually reading the information people have provided you?

In the posts in this thread, there have been links provided that answer every question you have asked.

The key here is that you must be willing to do a little footwork. Nobody will sit and spoon feed XOOPS to you. It is not in your best interest for us to do so.

Managing a XOOPS site does not require a lot of technical aptitude, but it does require at least a basic knowledge of web based technologies. If you don't have such knowledge, you can still get by just fine with XOOPS provided that you are willing to do a bit of reading and learning.

Again, please forgive me, I'm not trying to be blunt. I just find it odd that you're replying so quickly without even taking the time to read through the information that has been provided to you.

Best Regards,

James
