I tried to addon software (blog), but it said that
No cPAddons configuration found. Please contact your host and ask that they configure cPAddons.

HostGator
The cPAddons are no longer available. Please use Fantastico, instead.

A requirement for the Authorize.Net payment option in Joomla/VirtueMart is "cURL with OpenSSL support".

I see HG supports cURL and OpenSSL... does that also mean the combination of both?...

Thank you!
J.

HostGator
Yes, we support both requirements. You will need to contact us to have cURL enabled.

Will you support Python 2.5.x or 2.6.x in the future?

HostGator
Yes, of course. When we do support newer versions, then we will update the information in this article.

Are you guys planning to offer mediawiki as an install?

HostGator

For now, only PhpWiki is provided by Fantastico.
