Hello.

Just found out about this site. I have few questions. At the moment I am using koken cms, unfortunately as is dead, I'm looking for migrating to an other platform.

I would like to know how stable is this x3 photo gallery, and in terms ok development and supporting, how long will last?

Also I want to start first with free version, can purchase the license latter and upgrade?

Thanks

It's definitely "stable", as it's been out for several years, with last update 3 months ago. Support will last indefinitely. As for future development, we might start work on X4 soon, but it will be a free update for X3-owners and will mostly build on the concepts of X3.

Thanks for quick reply. I would like to make sure that it's not happening the same what happened to koken. I'm happy to purchase an license as long as I know the project won't be abandoned.

Also in terms of plugins, are there a lot?

Since you are coming from a concept like Koken with paid "plugins", there is no such concept in X3. For example, they even sold "contact form" as a plugin. These elementary features are simply features of X3. There is a section in X3 control panel called "Settings > Plugins", but they are all included and don't cover all features.

To understand all features of X3, it would be best to visit the demo and go through pages in the menu.

Click the STYLE (gears) icon in bottom right corner, and you will see a topbar interface appear with lots of styling options.

You can also check the showcase to see what others have done.

Thanks a lot. That's really promising. So I can start with free version and after a while I can upgrade without loosing any data?

Thanks Karl. I will start using your software, and purchase the license when ready.

That's a bit off topic, but can I message you privately?
