Congrats on your new site Wendy 🙂
Very interesting about the “hosting effect” what hosting gave you problems ?
My Very Best 🙂
KimsCreativeHub.comI just spoke to another person who said that they also had to change web sites from EasyCGI as they were “useless” … one to avoid I think!

I had problems the first time through creating an account, but I’m not sure why. I tried a second time and things worked fine.
I was able to make a purchase via PayPal (just refund the money when you get a minute) and the file hasn’t yet moved into the download area. Sometimes it’s slow, so I’ll just wait a bit and try again in a few
Thanks for testing JoAnn, will refund in just a moment, its good to know the checkout works 🙂
Done 😀

My Paypal accepts USD so hopefully that will be enough. (have added the other options .. I had forgotten how to do it lol)
I now have 6 images up there, I have not checked to see if Paypal works yet …. but if someone wants to take a look and see if it works, then that would be cool 🙂Sorted for now … not sure what caused it but I have EULA working now.
Further to this anywhere the EULA link is just reverts to the same page instead of the EULA … I am sure it is something I have done, any clues how to fix it?

Kind Wendy sent me a tutorial on menus, but i still couldnt do it, then my web designer friend took a look and has put menus up…….he did it in less than 10 minutes, whereas i have been trying to make a menu since 11 March.
Conclusion, its too hard for me, but i will keep going until i break it again. 🙂Glad you got it sorted Susan!
Ok what I have done is made sure I had for example “vector” and “transport” in the keywords … then did a search … this then gives me a results page. I take the link for that page and create a menu item with the link under the heading of Vectors
This will then give a page of vector transport images (only one so far).I did that JoAnn, but if I have illustrations on the menu, if I put category cars under it, I get both vectors and photos … I was trying to get only vector cars under vectors … Hmm I think I might have worked it out …. off to experiment

you can keep the US currency, but note that you will accept other currencies thru paypal, and then make sure your paypal account reflects that
Good point I will have to check that 🙂

viewtopic.php?f=60&t=1122Hi Kim I had worked out ow to change currency but could not see an Australian Dollar Option.

Fellow Aussie? Welcome!
As for currency though, there is no AU dollar option at the moment, I have just stuck to US as it’s probably more commonly accepted anyway.
All the best with it.Good to see another Aussie 🙂 I had wondered about the currency, I have it set to USD at the moment.

KimsCreativeHub.comThank you for the congrats … its building nicely I hope.
The host I was with was EasyCGI and I had been with them for years … so far Blue Host is proving very user friendly.I have my cart menu showing up and a menu under my header file …. so onto the next part …. 😀 talk about a learning curve phew!

Wendy, that’s wonderful news to hear all is working smoothly for you now! It’s surprising to see the effect a host can have on the function of the site. I think of the host as just a system to park on but clearly whatever they do in the background can have a lot of impact on our programs.
I’ll be looking forward to seeing your site when you’ve got it ready to share.
I agree after nearly 3 weeks of stress, things have been going smoothly ….
Here is the progress so far 🙂 … still a little way to go with things but we are getting there slowly
By the way is there anyway to change the currency to australia dollars?
I went step by step and because of the upload issues in my last install I made sure it worked …
We have “liftoff”

Now to go and nut out pages and menus ….
phew … was starting to think I had opened up a real pandora’s box of woes.
Thanks for all the support and cheerleading. 🙂
I did checkmark the imagemagick in the php box … either way I don’t mind which one does it as long as it does it right! 🙂 Thanks again 🙂
