my car isn't working right. It makes a sound...

...so that sound... from my laptop... it's my bad code. :/ I KNEW IT! (:

Thanks for the input though, I had a feeling I was going down the wrong path, so I'm glad the community's here to chime in a get me on track. I don't do this professionally yet, so my outside input's limited.

Where's the best place to look for order creation using the order class? I've been skimming the class and the one page checkout add-on...

Also regarding tooling I'm still on VScode which I added some php intellisense to, I'm going to school for comp sci and I've heard PHPstorms' free to students. Any thoughts on trying it out?
