Why can't I purchase a FamilyTogether package or upgrade my free site to another package?
FamilyTogether isn't setup to bill online. We accept payment through PayPal. Please email us if you'd like to upgrade your account.
Do I need to have my own domain to use a FamilyTogether website?
You do not need to have your own domain. Your site can be accessed at www.familytogether.com/YourLastName/NameYouPick If you would like to use your own domain there is a package that will allow you to do that.
Why do I have to login to FamilyTogether and login again when I access private pages on my site that uses my own domain name?
You are required to login twice because your site and FamilyTogether are on different domains. The session uses a cookie to keep track of your session id. For security reasons, browsers don't let FamilyTogether read a cookie set on your site, and your site can't read the cookie made by FamilyTogether.
