FAQs

  1. Why am I receiving a MySQL error?
    Update the connection variables in the "config.php" file, and ensure you've uploaded the correct SQL file with phpMyAdmin.
  2. How do I download the ZIP file again if I've lost it?
    You can download the package from the receipt email that was sent to you when you purchased the package. If you no longer have this email, you can request a new one here. Remember not to share your download links, as these are being monitored.
  3. Comments are not being displayed. What do I do?
    Make sure you verify your database credentials and make sure you've specified the "page_id" variable when creating a new instance of the "Comments" class.
