General Dolphin FAQ

Q: How can I replace Free package with Ad-Free package (and vice versa) without losing my customization?

A: The only difference between Free and Ad-Free packages are Ray widgets. So you can just replace the Free widgets with the Ad-Free ones.

You can do it this way:

1) replace the ray folder in the Free package you currently have with that from the Ad-Free package

2) set the following permissions:

chmod 777 ./ray/modules/board/files/ ./ray/modules/im/files/ ./ray/modules/mp3/files/ ./ray/modules/movie/files ./ray/modules/music/files

chmod 666 ./ray/modules/global/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/global/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/board/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/board/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/board/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/board/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/chat/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/chat/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/chat/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/chat/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/im/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/im/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/im/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/im/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/presence/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/presence/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/presence/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/presence/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/video/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/video/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/video/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/video/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/mp3/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/mp3/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/mp3/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/mp3/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/movie/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/movie/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/movie/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/movie/xml/skins.xml ./ray/modules/music/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/music/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/music/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/music/xml/skins.xml

chmod 666 ./ray/modules/desktop/xml/config.xml ./ray/modules/desktop/xml/langs.xml ./ray/modules/desktop/xml/main.xml ./ray/modules/desktop/xml/skins.xml

chmod 777 ray/modules/global/app/ffmpeg.exe

3) edit ray/modules/global/inc/header.inc.php and replace [path_to] with the full server path to your Dolphin directory with the trailing slash, for example: /home/dolphin/public_html/

4) edit ray/modules/global/js/integration.js and replace the [url_to_ray] with the full URL to Ray folder with the trailing slash, for example: ​http://mysite.com/ray/.

5) Enter your Admin Panel and register the Ad-Free widgets in Plugins -> Ray Suite.
