What is SocialEngine?
SocialEngine is a PHP script developed by Weblingo that allows you to create an online social network. You can use it to create a social networking website or use it to add a social networking section to your existing website. Right out of the box, your online social network will offer almost all of the features found on today's most popular social networking sites.
How can I purchase SocialEngine and how much does it cost?

What options do I have when purcahsing a template?
When you purcahse a template there are a few things you need to indicate on the product page before adding a template to your shopping cart.
- Choose your license-type: Do you want to purcahse a single-domain licenese or an unlimted domain license.
- Type in the URL of your store: We want to keep track of who is purchasing and using our templates.
- Installation service: For $45 added onto your template amount, we will install the template for you. This does not include installation of the SocialEngine software itself. If you need SocialEngine installed you can purchase installation service from Weblingo.
What is the difference between a single domain license and an ulimited domain license?
If you purchase a single-domain license, this means that you can only use your purchased template on the domain that you indicate in the ordering process.
If you purchase an unlimited license (which will generally cost more), you may use your purchased template on as many domains as you like. This option is ideal for developers who wish to use these templates for multiple clients.
