Unfortunately the client has already purchased BlogFusion and is dropping it cuz it doesn't support multiple users. I set it up for them and I have to say it wasn't a good experience. Variables being set in /Application.cfm without being inside of a cfif isdefined() or something similar, which is forgivable I suppose, but a bad sign. The database installer is built so that if it detects tables that it wants already exist... it drops them and creates its own under the assumption that they must belong to BF I guess ... and it uses simple table names like 'users'. So if you try and use it on an existing dsn and a table name collides you are royally screwed if you just run the installer without reading over it and finding this little bomb. This also essentially requires that you put BF into its own dsn given the method of naming tables. Plus it doesn't support username and password in cfquery, so you have to put those into the dsn in cf admin or revise all of the queries, which I did. Sorry for the bad vibes but this one freaked me out a little at the time. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:243077 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
