[Xerte] Xerte sandpit and installing

[Patrick McMahon]

Hi. 2 questions regarding xerte:

1. I am experimenting with xerte in the sandpit. It seems that I cannot easily upload media. I have uploaded one jpg file, but when I try to upload others they do not come up. When I try to preview I get the message "You must select media before you can preview it" but it is uploaded with this address:     FileLocation + 'media/new videos.jpg'       The image that works has the same address, but others do not work at all.

2. Am finding it really hard to upload xerte to my webserver (bluehost). I fail at the first hurdle. l I have made the root folder writable (777) and others (setup, etc) but when I try to install, it doesnt like it. It says 'dangerously writable'...and it changes these folders back to unwritable!

Any tips to these basic Qs?

Thanks
Pat
