Requirements For
CMS Site Builder and eCommerce Cart Builder

The Ecommerce CMS Cart Site Builder requires a web host that gives PHP 4.0 access or higher with register_globals enabled, and mySQL 3.23 or higher for the back-end database (current versions recommended), and phpMyAdmin for database uploads. You must have a web host that provides PHP and mySQL.

Ecommerce CMS products work on both Windows servers and Linux/Unix servers, provided they have PHP 4.0+ and mySQL 3.23+ installed. The exception is GoDaddy hosting; we do not support the use of the system on their Windows servers (the Linux/Unix servers are fine).

Please note that the inventory control system requires the Mals-E Remote Call feature. Therefore, inventory control and sales storage through Ecommerce CMS Cart Site Builder will not be automated on any web site that uses third party payment systems that do not utilize this feature, which include but are not limited to LinkPoint, Mirapay, Netbanx, Nochex, PayByCheck and PSIGate. A list of these systems can be found at Mals-E. PayPal users can utilize the inventory control feature if this system is set up as a non-secure payment type as described in the support documents.

Occasionally, hosts have special PHP or mySQL setups, including PHP run as CGI and PHP setups that do not use the standard configuration, and therefore may require additional catalog modifications that are not included in the setup costs. If your web host's server does not have standard PHP configurations or requires special modifications, we will contact you with the proposed costs before the modifications are made.

Your catalog page must contain only HTML code if you wish us to integrate your site design into your catalog. If your catalog includes SSI, CGI or other scripting components, there may be an additional charge to integrate your catalog template. Frame sites or sites with FrontPage components sometimes need additional integration work as well. If your catalog does have components that cannot be easily integrated without additional work, we will use one of our free templates and give you instructions on how to integrate your design, or we can assist you with your catalog integration for an additional cost.

If you have any questions as to  whether your host has the necessary requirements for E commerce CMS Cart Site Builder, please send an email to your host with the above needs. Or contact us if you have any questions, sending the name of your web host, the plan used and the email of a technical contact at your hosting company for further checking.
