    5454*You should always back up your data before making major changes to the way your production web site functions.*
    5555
     56This plugin
     57
    5658Installation is easiest when done through your WordPress Dashboard:
    57591. Select **Plugins >> Add New** from your sites WordPress dashboard.
     
    6870This plugin is a rewrite of the [LDD Business Directory](http://wordpress.org/plugins/ldd-business-directory/). As such, you can upgrade to LDD Directory Lite from LDD Business Directory *without* losing any of your content.
    6971
    70 **You do not need to deactivate or uninstall the LDD Business Directory plugin before activating LDD Directory Lite.**
     72*You do not need to deactivate or uninstall the LDD Business Directory plugin before activating LDD Directory Lite.*
    7173
     741. Install and activate the plugin using the above instructions.
     752. Once installed, if data is detected from the original plugin it will automatically notify you with a rather large message at the top of your Directory Lite dashboard screens.
     763. Press the "Import Data" button, and you will be taken to the upgrade page.
     774. All done!
    7278
    73 1. Install and activate the plugin using the instructions [here](http://wordpress.org/plugins/ldd-directory-lite/installation/).
    74 2. The plugin will collect all your existing content and import it automatically.
    75 
    76 As of now the plugin *does not* remove the data from the original Directory plugin. It also does not store any of its own data in the same locations, so the two datasets are completely separate.
    77 
    78 While this does leave some clutter behind, it also ensures a painless upgrade path. Until the plugin has successfully been upgraded on a few hundred more sites, we chose not to remove your old data in case you either wanted to roll back to using the original plugin, or on the chance that something went awry with the beta.
    79 
    80 A future version of LDD Directory Lite will scan for this leftover data and ask if you want to remove it.
     79**LDD Directory Lite only imports this data, it does nothing to alter or remove it. If you decide to revert to the original plugin because of errors encountered while using this beta release, you will have all you original content waiting for you.**

    117 = 0.5.4-beta =
     145I tend to spend a lot of time coding; not only is it my day job, but it's also one of the things I like to do in my spare time. No matter how much time I spend however, I'm just one person. This plugin is where it is thanks to the hard work and open source beliefs of more people than just myself. While I always try to make sure they are credited in the code itself, I would like to take the time to include them here as well. In no particular order:

     147**Who:** [WebDevStudios](http://webdevstudios.com/)<br>
     148**Where:** [Custom Metaboxes and Fields for WordPress](https://github.com/WebDevStudios/Custom-Metaboxes-and-Fields-for-WordPress)<br>
     149**Why:** Used to build the administrative user interface for the directory listings custom post types.
    124150
    125 = 0.5.1-beta =
    126 * Initial commit of the forked [LDD Business Directory](http://wordpress.org/plugins/ldd-business-directory/) plugin.
     151**Who:** Federico Ulfo<br>
     152**Where:** [Rain.TPL](http://www.raintpl.com/)<br>
     153**Why:** This amazing but lightweight template parser helps keep our views sorted away from our programming logic. It hasn't yet been decided whether or not this will be permanent (to capitalize on the caching abilities) or temporary (to run straight PHP templates for speed), it is an amazing parser that has helped me focus on other areas of programming.
     154
     155**Who:** [yoast](https://yoast.com)<br>
     156**Where:** [WordPress SEO](https://yoast.com/wordpress/plugins/#wpseo) Usage Tracking<br>
     157**Why:** Code from the WordPress SEO plugin was integrated into this plugin in order to quickly add anonymous usage tracking. The information supplied by those who opt in to this program allows us a fantastic insight as to what configurations the plugin is being used on, and how to test future releases.
     158
     159**Who:** [Bootstrap](http://getbootstrap.com/) & [Bootflat](http://bootflat.github.io/)<br>
     160**Where:** Front end interface.<br>
     161**Why:** A trimmed down copy of bootstrap (which can be disabled if your theme already uses it) and bootflat were used to rapidly define the front end interface for the plugin. These libraries are amazing feats of CSS prowess.
     162
     163**Who:** [Viljami S.](http://viljamis.com), [Henrik Joreteg, Adam Brault & Michael Garvin](http://happyjs.com/), [Ryan Heath](http://rpheath.com/)<br>
     164**Where:** [Responsive Slides](http://responsiveslides.com), [Happy.js](http://happyjs.com/), and [searchbox](https://github.com/rpheath/searchbox)<br>
     165**Why:** Various javascript elements all around the plugin are built on or with scripts originally coded by the above folk. As of this writing, my own javascript abilities are nowhere near as advanced as my ability to draw circles on my stomach and pat my head at the same time. Until they are, I seek out the knowledge of others.
     166
     167**Who:** [Evan Solomon](http://evansolomon.me/), [Michel Fortin](http://michelf.ca), & [John Gruber](http://daringfireball.net)<br>
     168**Where:** [WP Github Flavored Markdown Comments](https://github.com/evansolomon/wp-github-flavored-markdown-comments/blob/master/github-flavored-markdown-comments.php)<br>
     169**Why:** Because markdown! Markdown is slowly being integrated in to the front end of the plugin, which will allow users to have some measure of control over the way their listings appear (should the site administrator choose to enable it).
     170
     171**Who:** [Tim Schlechter](https://github.com/TimSchlechter)<br>
     172**Where:** [Bootstrap Tags Input](https://timschlechter.github.io/bootstrap-tagsinput/examples/)<br>
     173**Why:** This was added initially on the dashboard to group multiple notification email addresses, but I can see it easily having a future on the front end of the plugin as well.
