Here's what I did:1) WebCat 2.0 GM, told installer to install into the cgi-bin folder 2) Set up ACTION to point .tmpl -> :cgi-bin:WebCatalog:WebCatalog.acgi 3) Dragged GeneralStore folder out to WebSTAR root level 4) Using SimpleText, changed WebCatalog Prefs WebServerFolder to ../../ 5) linked to /GeneralStore/entry.tmplIf you want the PageEditor links to work, you'll probably have to drag PageEditor and TemplateEditor out to the root level too.The only true difference here is that WebCatalog.acgi is one level deeper than normal, so it needs to know the WebSTAR root is one level higher up from itself than normal.Enjoy!Grant Hulbert, V.P.
