Can someone explain what the API setting in the ACP settings is?

Hmm, no! It doesn't explain much at all. But thanks for trying

I'd ask at vb.com than
this forum is for vb mods, it sounds like you have a question about the default setup.

cheers

The API key in the admincp is only for use with the not-yet-out mobile applications.

Ahh, so I can happily ignore it.

See, having it there without any real explanation of it gives the impression it might be important. Now I know it isn't

Thanks, Lynne.
