Yes, you can transfer your Moto CMS site from one domain to another. But you will need to activate it for another domain name and IP address after this. Also you can first show the Demo version of the definite Moto CMS template to the client, if he hasn’t bought it yet. Or let him sign in under your domain to see what editing can be made in the Control panel for this definite site.

Our product is licensed on a per-domain basis. It enables you to use Flash CMS on a single website only, belonging to either you or your client. If you want to use our product for another project, you have to purchase the license again. All your licenses can be managed through your personal account that will be automatically created after purchase.

No, Flash CMS license is included into the template's package. You don't need to buy them separately.

No additional monthly or annual payments are required. The duration of the license is not restricted anyhow.

When using FTP software, please make sure that you have set the binary mode for the file transfer of your FTP client. Don’t change the file names (i.e. don’t convert the file names to lowercase).
You can upload the Flash CMS template files to a remote server in a usual way. There is no need to perform any additional adjustments after you have uploaded your template. However, please make sure that your server configuration fully meets the software requirements available on the preview page of the Flash CMS template. After uploading your files, you can open your template on the server.

Our CMS provides the possibility to switch your site to “Under Construction” mode. In this mode all visitors will see a simple page, stating that your site is not finished yet, while you’ll be able to edit and preview changes using control panel.
If you want to keep your current site active until you finish customizing your new one, you can create a subfolder and upload all the files to it. After that you can make all the editing using the control panel and see them in the preview before replacing your live site.

Yes, you can. Please, find the instructions for the installation of th WAMP server here.

You can track all the Internet traffic on your website by using google analytics tools, use the following links to read more about it

http://www.google.com/intl/en_uk/analytics/features.html

In order to activate this feature in your moto cms you should do the following:

1. Register at https://www.google.com/analytics/provision/signup

2. Navigate to your Google Analytics account and find the code they offer you to add to your website. Somewhere in that code you can find your identifier (something, that looks like UA-123123-1). Please copy it.

3. Open your moto cms admin panel of your website http://www.yoursite.com/adminand go to the menu preferences>website preferences>website>SEO&Analytics tab.

4. On this tab, check "Enable Google Analytics" and "Enable Flash Tracing" check boxes.

5. Paste the identifier you copied from your Google Analytics account to "Tracking code" box.

6. Click "Save" button and you're done. Google Analytics code is now added to all pages of your site!

After you did this simply login to your google analytics account and track all the data from your website.

Please note, that you don't have to modify HTML source of your site to add Google Analytics tracking code. Our CMS does this work for you.

Unfortunately this is not possible due to Adobe Flash restrictions. The full screen mode cannot be started automatically.

You need to copy all of the templates files and upload them to another server. Please, don't forget to set the transfer type to binary while uploading. After the files are uploaded you will probably need to re-activate your product for the new server's IP address.

The password is your transaction ID.

Moto CMS is written in ActionScript 3 using PureMVC Model-View-Controller framework.

Sorry, but it is necessary to purchase the template first and then you can make a customization request for our template tuning.

Unfortunately, HTML Widget doesn't work in full screen mode. In Full Screen we can see only flash part of the site, that appears above all applications and above your browser, so HTML Widget , being HTML part of the site, is covered with flash part in full screen mode.

You need Flash CS5.

Yes. You can make a customization request here: http://motocms.com/flash-templates/customize/ or contact our support team directly providing the detailed description of the changes you would like to make.

If your website was not created using Flash CMS components for content management, it won’t work with Flash CMS out of the box. To make your website manageable by Flash CMS, you have to modify it to use CMS components for content display.

You can also order our template tuning to convert your Flash template into CMS. Please, contact our support team, so they will consider the possibility, the value and the price for such customization work.
Please visit Flash CMS template gallery to purchase a flash template, made by professionals, that will be managed by Flash CMS.
If you want to create your own templates for Flash CMS, start by reading documentation on our developers’ forum

Please find an article about your Moto CMS site's SEO optimization here.

Yes it is possible in most of the cases. Please, make such customization request on http://motocms.com/flash-templates/customize/ or contact our support team for this.

You'll need to open moto.xfl file in Adobe Flash CS5, change publishing settings to publish a Windows (or Macintosh) projector and publish the file. This action will produce a moto.exe executable. Please remove moto.swf file and all content under /admin folder except MotoCMS.swf, then run resulting executable in a folder with whole template's file structure to make sure it works normally. 
Now you'll need to burn template's whole folder structure to your CD.

Yes, it is possible, but it will be a very serious customization work. Actually, our developers will need to re-create the template from the scratch.

If you are interested, please submit a new ticket, so we will discuss the terms and the price for such customization.

Unfortunately, this option is not yet available. We hope it will appear in one of our future updates.

You can find all of the languages which are supported by Flash CMS here.

You may upload .JPG, .PNG, .PDF, .MP3, .MP4, .SWF and .FLV files via Flash CMS control panel.

Such restrictions are depending on your server's PHP memory settings. Please, contact your hosting provider and ask them to increase memory_limit, upload_max_filesize and post_max_size for your site.

You can create two (or more) versions of the same site in two different languages, using one license, but only under the same domain. For this you will need to upload your template again into another sub-folder on your server and re-build your site completely in another language, so you will have two versions of the same site, which you can link with each other.

Other solution: you can complete one of these sites, then make backup of it. Also, you will need to download the following folders to your local computer: fonts, images, music, media, video. Then you upload your template to a sub-folder and then upload your backup files as well as all media folders to the same sub-folder. After this you will just need to translate the texts in the Control Panel.

The best way to embed a table to your website is Google Docs Service. For this you need to have a Gmail account. If you do not have it yet please sign up to Google here https://accounts.google.com/

After signing up please go to Google Docs service here http://drive.google.com/ and create new SpreadSheet document and name it.

Then you can create your table there using tools provided by Google.

When you finish editing your table and are ready to publish it on your website please go to tab 'File' and choose property 'Publish to the web'

Then you'll see a popup window with the settings of publishing:

1. Choose a Sheet you want to embed to your website;

2. Click 'Start publishing' button;

3. Select 'Html to embed in a page' property;

4. You should choose a sheet to emabed;

After that please save the changes and preview your website. The Table should be on your page.
