OneBody hosting - access to MySQL database?
Posted: Fri May 13, 2011 10:52 pm
Does a OneBody hosting account have access to its MySQL database? I like the demo, but I'd also like a trial account, or know the $120 fee could be refunded, to actually see how it works. I know there is a sync utility to PowerChurch, but I'm concerned we may down the road want some custom feature not provided that would require access to the database. We could always host OneBody ourselves, but it's worth $10/mo. not to have to have that burden.
I wrote a custom "Intranet" for our church we would be replacing with OneBody, so it's difficult to know if everything it does has an equivalent in OneBody. And the demo doesn't show an "admin" interface, or even allow certain features. For example, can we put a link in the group description? I'd like to link to a Google site for some groups that need a full website. The group "description" doesn't support HTML, and the "Other Notes" doesn't post until the group is approved, and there's no way to approve it.
