Hi,

I'm currently creating my website with Visual Site Designer, will probably have to use the HTML Editor aswell in a while. Anyway, I bought my domain with Godaddy, which is where it is parked right now. I've been asking CoffeeCup support a lot of questions and they've been a great help, but I'm sure they have better things to do than answer my questions forever, so here I am in the forum!

I was planning to move all my hosting and files to CoffeeCup as it seems great, but one of the key features of my site will be user logins. Apparently you can't use Website Access Manager with S-Drive.

So:

1. Is S-Drive CoffeeCup's only hosting service, or do they have any mechanism by which I can use WAM with them?

2. Also, do I need to create a separate database or does WAM create a database file to be stored on my hosts server?

Thanks.

At this time we do not offer support for .htaccess on S-Drive.

Can we use WAM with S-Drive now? In 2014, this was not possible. I have version 5.0

Hi Tim,
I think the previous answer still applies.

I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

I am redesigning our club web site so I can move it over from GoDaddy to CC. I just started working with WAN when I found out that it is not supported by S-Drive. So if WAM is not supported by S-Drive, what can I do to setup a page on our site web site that is restricted to members only?

While not as strong as htacces, this working pretty well to keep prying eyes away.
