Recommendations for directory scripts?
I was wondering if any of the forum members who post here could give some idea of their experiences with the various directory scripts that are available.

The AE Dating script seems to be popular, and there are one or two others of a similar style.

It's likely that I will use one with a MySQL database. Is there any particular one that works well, (or any that should be avoided)?

Personally, I like this one; http://websight.sourceforge.net/WDS/. Pretty easy to customize as well.

I looked into that as well - follow some of the topics and you'll see it appears the backdoor stuff has been taken out of the script.

That links caffe looks promising. They also offer a classifieds script that has a clean look.

One thing I've found very frustrating with some of the directories is not having the ability to go back and change your details afterwards.

The ones that are biz-directory script based for example don't let you do let.

If you're creating a new directory, this might be something you'd want to keep in mind.

Good luck with the search...
