Hello,
I’m new to the whole setting up web pages etc, but the experience has been a positive one so far. Am having one issue that I could use some advice on;
Have set up and published the website using Freeway Pro and it appears to be working fine. The pages are .html
Looking to inject some Perch CMS content and this is where the issues have started. Perch is set up and functioning. The problems arise when I try to get pages into a .php format as advised on the Perch support site.
adding the .htaccess file
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .html .htm
causes the Perch management pages to download to my ‘downloads’ folder instead of in the browser window (Safari).
I have raised tickets with both Perch and the Host provider and am tick-tacking between the two without a resolution so far.
Is one way around the issue to rename all the page files in Freeway to the .php extension before publishing and uploading the website?
If I do this, does this mean I then have both .html files (from a previous upload) and .php files in the host website folders? How would this affect search engines?
I have not proceeded as far as inserting the bits of Perch code into the Freeway generated pages, but imagined this is just done using the crowbar action (which I have used to embed other mailing list form code, youtube video code etc). Is this the way Perch is used with Freeway Pro? That is, use Freeway Pro code as the master website template, always adding the Perch code to the Freeway website file at a local level, then uploading the website through FTP to get the framework in place? Then using the Perch pages to add dynamic content? Seems to be the logical way that the two pieces would work nicely together (without one getting out of step with the other).
Looking forward to some feedback.
Regards,
Shane.
