I don’t see any good looking directories using esyndicat and site-sift the nice ones are phpld anyone knows examples of very nice looking directories using this scripts?
The skin is easy to modify imho... but if the script has a bug that ruins your directory that's a totally different situation.
Where did you get that nonsense from? A skin is the least of your worries if you have poor coding that can cause you to be hacked. I've tested both phpld and esyndicat latest versions, if I never knew better the codes are almost identical and neither are better than each other as they both have their merits.
What about search engine optimization? Which one is better phpLD or eSyndiCat? btw is there a free version of phpLD?
i vote for phpld... it's always have a new mod(paid and free)... p/s; i already upgrade my phpld to 3.3...(this is first time i make it by myself, uhuhhuhu before this i think it's so hard to do) sorry bad language
lol, Clearly not up the North in reality land. People must be off the rails if they think it's all about features, it's like having the shell of a ferrari but the engine of a sewing machine under the hood.
Old thread guys!! But while we're at it I definitely have to say php link directory... I have 5 sites running it and its smooth, stable, and definitely very nice for an admin to manage!
I could care less about how smooth and/or stable anyone thinks phpld is. The support for those of us interested enough to join their forum is abysmal. You will be treated like a scammer or spammer, given no options on how your forum interface will be and treated with contempt if you even ask about it. I want more from a company who nickels and dimes me to death (that's a whole 'nother story). eSyndiCat support is very friendly - when they bother to support you. I have seen support issues go untended for weeks and far too many have never been resolved. Their upgrade process is ridiculous and there is such a disparity in the use of the English language, it often times creates great confusion and misunderstanding. If it's a decision between PHPLD and eSyndiCat, just say no. Find something else - there's plenty more available from companies that really want your business and who will treat you with respect.

PHPld is free I mean version 2 and syndicate is paid I think esydicate is easy to operate and has more feature than phpld
