Re: FP extensions

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

I can do that (or at least try to do it) but is there a limit on FP? If so
what is it?

The best option, which has been suggested already to you, is to break the
site in smaller subwebs /
subsites based on content.

Subwebs / Subsites are completely independent webs / sites under FP root
web, and allows you to open
and/or publish each independent of each other as well as the root web.

If the bulk of your site is image, sound files, etc. these would good to
place into a separate
folder (not the images folder) and then convert the folder to a subweb /
subsite.

I am having a *very* tough problem with FP and my web host. They broke
the
extensions and now this is what they say (in pidgin English).

Dear Customer,

The FPE will not work for your web site and the reason is that your be
site
is too big, too many files you have. The FPE are breaking over and over
again. In order to prevent this from being happening only you can fix
this
on your end. Here is the limit of the web site made with FPE:

you have ~72,000 files (now they are ~55,000). FPE is for site not
bigger
than 100 MBytes and with no more than 1000 files. FPE can't be installed
normally here, I strongly recommend - either to leave 1000 files or use
FTP.
However they are - re-installed again.

So FP is only for 'toy' sites according to my web host. Your decision.

Is there a document somewhere that talks about the pros and cons of
using
the FP extensions? I use FP 2003 for my personal website
(www.adahighlander.com). It is hosted by DreamHost.com. They support
the
extensions but they have a big notice on the Enable FP Extensions page
that
says my website will not accessible via FTP if I enable them. They
also
say
it will take several days for the change to ripple through the network
since
my IP address will have to change.

Any helpful thoughts or comments would be appreciated. Thanks!
