    a few questions that I need help with.

    #1) I plan on integrating my site with Joomla, how do I install Joomla and Amember in the root folder? It doesn't seem to work since both scripts produce "index.php" and renaming it would cause problems. Is there any way around this?

    #2) I want to have the following membership subscriptions: free and registered (unpaid), bronze, silver, and gold are all paid. I will probably have corresponding sub-domains (ie. bronze.subdomain.com, silver.subdomain.com, etc.), does this mean I have to install an instance of Joomla for each sub-domain?

    #3) I've already installed Joomla into the root domain (ie. www.domain.com), and I've installed amember into www.domain.com/home. How do I protect the files through amember? I figured it would work if I put the "bronze, silver, gold" files in the amember folder (www.domain.com/home/bronze, etc.) but I received this error msg:
    "File exists and contains non-aMember code unmodifiable by aMember. If you don't need this file, delete it and aMember will automatically create a new aMember compatible .htaccess file to replace it."

    #4) I just logged in and noticed this error message regarding cron job:
    "Cron job has been running last time at 01/30/2008 06:35:18, it is more than 24 hours before. Most possible external cron job has been set incorrectly. It may cause very serious problems with the script"
    what does it mean?

    1) do not put them both in the root! Place joomla in the root, and amember in a subdirectory. www.domain.com/member/

    2) No, but you will need to use a joomla extension like jaclplus to create multiple levels of access in joomla, and control the access to the memberships with amember.

    3) create a new subdirectory www.domain.com/bronze/
    and protect it using amember new_rewrite.

    4) You need to set your cron job, check the amember manual.
