How Zaport Works – Illustration

Demo login

If you want to test the the user account, go here and login with the following credentials

user: client

pass: client

If you want to see Zaport Admin panel, go here and login with the following credentials:

user: admin

pass: admin


If you are logged in as “Client”, you must logout first – because Zaport Clients can’t see WordPress backend, you won’t be able to visit the link specified above!

Requirements

  • WordPress 3.5 or greater
  • PHP 5.3 or greater

Zaport also requires the following PHP extensions:

  • php_imap
  • php_openssl
  • php_mcrypt
  • php_curl

These exensions are installed on 99% of shared hosts so you most likely won’t have any issues. If you are running a VPS you can install them yourself.

If you want to make sure, you can copy this PHP code, paste it on your server somewhere (e.g. name it zaport_test.php) and execute it (visit it from browser). It will display if your server is ready to run zaport.
