Feature Comparison for FileMaker Pro and WebDirect.WebDirect caches theme info on the browser and so changing themes causes additional massive data pushes when you don’t need them.

For best performance in a solution… DO NOT switch themes, as you navigate from Layout to Layout.

One way that WebDirect is actually superior to desktop or Go is sorting: because it can’t sort locally, all sorting is done on the server, which is much faster.

Also, for the same reason, don’t try to hack the CSS. Definitely don’t go into Layout Mode in 12 with a file that’s been modified in 13, because 12 won’t recognize the updated objects and who knows what might result.

Using a file with FileMaker 13-customized layouts in FileMaker 12 may result in rendering issues, but won’t cause permanent damage.

As it is, it creates a custom object with all of its own CSS, which is the opposite of what happens if you set it to use a shared style.

Don’t use the Format Painter until it is fixed to preserve custom styles.

(This is probably just as true for desktop or Go.) An existing classic layout that required 850K of bandwidth to display was reduced to 25% of that by converting it to a modern FMP style with no customizations, and even after customizing it to make it look like it did under Classic, it required only 50% of the original bandwidth.

Custom themes and shared styles make a huge difference in the amount of CSS that needs to be passed over the network.

The fewer layout objects, the better, so tabbed interfaces should be split up to put small sets of fields on separate layouts.

There are some limitations to WebDirect compared to FileMaker client.

They could get FileMaker functionality by only using the browser already installed on workstations. WebDirect can be a great solution in a large corporation with rigid desktop computing standards and costly application deployment methods that don’t already include FileMaker. To use WebDirect effectively, you need a powerful server since each connected user is essentially running a copy of FileMaker on the server for them. You will likely be better served by a FileMaker and WordPress integration. To simplify the decision to use WebDirect ask yourself this question: Do I own every workstation that will be accessing the WebDirect solution? If the answer is “no”…then you likely have public or “anonymous” users and WebDirect is not a good fit. WebDirect is a great technology that continues to get better with every revision of FileMaker.

designed for mobile use on Android…though it may work in some limited cases.
