We have many users from Koken, but keep in mind that X3 was not created as a competitor of Koken. While Koken focused on management abilities specifically for pro photograhpers, X3 has always been about the website presentation in terms of features, design and speed/performance.

This should not be a problem. Pehaps something with file permissions if you have setup locally? You can edit any pages/settings.
PS! If you have installed the SAMPLE pages, we recommend you avoid using those pages, as they have all been specifically setup with different options, to showcase variations. Normally I would recommend creating your own pages, and using the sample pages as reference for settings.

In X3, you will click the "protect" menu in the panel, which allows you to password protect a folder by username/login or by "users". With this feature, it means pages will be protect "recursively", which means if /mypage/ is password-protected, then /mypage/subpage/ will be protected also.

Yes. You should first install X3 separately on server though. After that, simply synch the
/config/ and
/content/ dirs, as they are the only folders where your website content/settings are stored. ALSO, because of X3's cache mechansim, you would need to go to the /panel/ (on web version) and click SAVE to make sure page's are refreshed ... This is necessary because if you update data by FTP, X3 does not know that it should clear and refresh page cache.

Many coming from Koken have mentioned this also. It simply wasn't the focus of X3, but maybe in the future ... When you say "images data", as you specifically referring to the META data?

Thanks. Of course, new users and feedback will help shape what comes from us in the future.
