    Hi,

    We would be interested by having pads accessible for group collaboration on our commonsabundance.net site. We’ve tried to download participad, butr apparently it needs an instance of etherpad lite to run which cannot it seems be uploaded as a plugin… is trher a way around that? we’d really like to have stuff ‘in a box’ and to to worry about programming and setting up stuff ‘in hard’.

    @Boone, if you are looking here (not sure how to tag/call someone in a convo here) would you have some advice on how to set up a collaboration toolbox with chat, tasks, events, pads, attachments etc…

    Thanks!!

    Hi Helene,

    As the requirements for Participad state, you need Etherpad Lite.

    There is no way around this I’m afraid.

    Ray thanks for your reply. I know we need Etherpad 🙂 I was looking for an ‘easy’ non geek way to install it… How can I install it on my own? I don’t know how to do that… The person who installed the site is not available for a long while. Could someone help us out?

     

    Thanks 🙂

    Hi @r-a-y, we are having problems to install etherpad lite. It seems that etherpad gets installed, and when we activate participad it crashes both etherpad and the wordpress site…

    Has anyone else experienced a problem?
