I've installed perl and php scripts for years and have rarely had this many problems. For something that looks so simple, it is impossibly screwed up. The installation instructions are abysmally lacking. (For example, it tells you to run the install script, which adds a table to the database... but it never tells you to create the database.) The usage instructions are nonexistant. I followed the directions exactly but the only thing I can do with the admin feature is stare at the error message "Please change the default user name and password in the gbconfig.php file IMMEDIATELY !!!" despite the fact that I've done so. My husband, who is an extremely experienced programmer and writes php scripts has spent the last 45 minutes trying to figure out what is wrong. It uses "themes" which are defined simply by a file called "file" which contains a very limited amount of html coding. I hated the colors this thing used, so I changed all the hex codes (and nothing else) in this "file" file and saved it. It changed ONE of the colors. The rest remained the hideous defaults. In short, it's unusable. I'm off to find another one. One that's properly written and actually works.
