Re: Very basic question about the 'CakePHP Project Files'

If you have the site/application sitting on your server, that's all you will need to have the amendments made. I am of course assuming that you've full access to the server?

Usually, if you have paid to have a site written, you OWN the code, unless there was some sort of other arrangement that had previously agreed with the original programmer.

Hi guys, I searched out this group to get a definite answer to my dilemma. I am an end user  ...  not a programmer.

I had a CakePHP site built and delivered but there a few small issues with it.

The long and short of it is that after I had made the final payment and it was transferred to my own server, I asked for some minor issues to be fixed.

After dragging their feet and pretty much ignoring me, I approached other programmers to see if they could finish it off.

They told me that they need access to the 'cake project file' to continue any work  ...  but the web development team say that it is not their company policy to provide that.

Apart from the fact that it feels like I'm being held to ransom  ... especially after I paid the agreed price, plus a bit more  ...  they are not doing the work and my site is un-useable.

Can anyone offer any (helpful) advise please. :)

Thanks,  Roger
