Good list. These, along with the customtag cf_ vs cfmodule, all contribute to why we can't run Plum. Good luck with getting a list of hosting providers together. We use in-house servers, but the department that runs them doesn't easily support doing all these.
Related to this, it would be good if the Plum site included a System Requirements page that lists these requirements. Also, I notice the FAQ page is empty other than saying Plum is still Beta. -Kevin > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of Adam Churvis > Sent: Friday, March 25, 2005 10:43 AM > To: Plum Discussion List > Subject: [plum] Shared hosting > > Guys, > > On Monday morning I'm going to send this message to > discussion lists and also directly to some hosting providers. > Please respond ASAP with any additional shared hosting > problem areas that I should add to the list so I can make > sure it's complete.
