On one hand I hear this and on the other I hear that and I can't reconcile.

I guess I just don't get.

All I hear is don't use GoDaddy for hosting you'll be sorry.

Ok after my 14th reinstall on my machine locally so I can use Easy PHP to easily see changes and modifications I am trying to make to the freaking header on my main page locally before uploading everything to my server, ZenCart will not complete the install because ZC doesn't create the database.

Well GoDaddy set up the database without a hitch, only editing the site was a pain.

While locally might give me freer access to change and edit the look the inability to easily set up the database is a killer.

I feel like I just want to breakdown and loose it.

The bottom line is all I really need is a back shopping cart that is not much more than a modified Excel spreadsheet where people can order one ten items we offer and I have wasted a full four days on this. I don't need to sell to Japan or Timbuktu or the next county for crisssake.


I am sure for most this probably works great and is everything they need but I feel like I bit off way more than I can chew and right now I have 22 hours of energy to spare in the bank (according to the 7 bottles of 5 hour energy I have scatted around my desk) when all I want to do is try to modify a freaking header.


I am going to hang my head in shame.
