##Frequently Asked Questions##

How do I request a feature or submit a bug report?

Please create a Github account and use the Issues tracker at github.com/CPHDH/Curatescape/issues.

###Can I create a Curatescape project with my own design and/or branding? Yes. While paid Curatescape projects include some customizable elements, licensing organizations and individuals may wish to create their own look from scratch. Please review Custom logo and theme design for details on compatibility requirements and other considerations.

###Video is not working on my site! How do I fix it? First, make sure that you have reviewed the video formatting requirements. Video should play fine on all major browsers/devices if your file is formatted according to the Curatescape video recommendations. Assuming your video is properly encoded, you may need to add the following to your .htaccess file:

AddType video/mp4 mp4 m4v

###How can I speed up my site? Make sure you have enabled caching in your .htaccess file by uncommenting the following lines...

<IfModule mod_expires.c>
    <FilesMatch "\.(js|ico|gif|jpg|png|css)$">
        ExpiresActive on
        ExpiresDefault "access plus 10 day"
    </FilesMatch>
</IfModule>

Next, enable GZIP by adding the following.

<IfModule mod_deflate.c>
    AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html text/css text/javascript
</IfModule>
