Question: Do I need to install OrFind directly on my web server?

Answer: You do not need to install OrFind directly on your server if you have FTP access or access to your website’s files via network share.

It is also possible to run OrFind on your production webserver but perform orphan analysis on your local development pages. To do this, simply use your production server’s URL, but use your local development files as the File Location parameter. The advantage to this is that you’ll be able to confirm that orphan analysis was done correctly while not risking the state of your production website.
