Is OSC worth the trouble?


customshirts

Recommended Posts

I'm about to sign up with a host, www.readysetconnect.com, and set up my OSC shop to sell custom made dress shirts (so, I'll need to have customers input their measurements as part of their order).

 

Looking through these forums, I notice a lot of people have problems with payment modules and a lot of other things. I'm trying to decide if OSC is worth using despite all the little problems associated with it. I'd like to know before I sign up with the host. What do you think??

 

I plan on using the PayPal module because it seems like the easiest to implement. Any opinions?

 

 

Thanks in advance (sorry for the long post),

Dan

most people who have the alledged problems are ones who have not done any programming, etc before, and do not like to read.

 

piece of cake for paypal, make sure it is the ipn version.

Just make sure to READ ALL OF THE DOCUMENTATION before jumping right into it. Especially true for contributions (added code). You don't really need coding experience to get off the ground, but it might help if you want to do something vastly different.

 

Good luck with the site :)

Oh, by the way, I know there is no commercial posting, so, I would appreciate it if people could PM me with what host they are using and if they are happy with them, or possibly a recommendation of another host. Thanks.
