Quick notes for the CG-PowerPack

0. ALL DATABASE TABLE NAMES CHANGED -- this occurred back in 1.5a6
To better match multi-install scenarios, all the table names now use the wordpress prefix set
for the given installation. SO YOU WILL NEED TO CHANGE THE TABLE NAMES MANUALLY.
If you are a previous user upgrading, you'll need to change your tables as follows:
referer_visitlog => {your_wp_prefix}cg_referer cg_amazon => {your_wp_prefix}cg_amazon {your_wp_prefix}postrelated => {your_wp_prefix}cg_related This should hopefully make things MUCH easier for people in the future.

1. The {plugins} folder contains 'plugin-stubs', tiny PHP files for WordPress, that hook
up WordPress to each of the major PowerPack library features exposed via the WP Plugin system.
You want to copy the contents of the {plugins} folder into {your wp}/wp-content/plugins/
and activate plugins as desired. (Of course, you MUST go into the WP Plugins admin panel
and activate any CG plugins you want running -- but I assume you know about activating
plugins at this point... ;) )

Note that the {plugins} folder has a {cg-plugins} subfolder. I used to have it broken out
separately, but for the moment (this ALPHA/BETA cycle), I figure easier to tell people to
copy the whole darn thing at once...

2. ALL OF THE DOCUMENTATION COULD BE SOMEWHAT DATED! A lot changed getting toward 1.0 release
and more since then, and I haven't really touched the docs. THIS IS AN ALPHA RELEASE.

3. If using CG-Amazon or CG-Feedread, after uploading to your site, you must change
the permissions on the /cg-plugins/cache_amazon and/or /cache_feedread caching folders
to be writeable by your server, or you will suffer system performance problems, and
errors will be shown. Also, CG-WhatTunes expects the /cg-plugins/tracktunes.txt file
to be writeable by the server.

4. The other documentation (as it is) has notes about particular CG libraries. In particular,
note that the {cg-amazon-extra-stuff} folder contains detailed docs AND additional files
pretty much required to get CG-Amazon up and functioning properly.
