jwalker Posted June 1, 2007 Posted June 1, 2007 Hello I downloaded the Pay Without Account Contribution. However, I am very green (I have no experience) with PHP and I think some of the developers think some of us users understand PHP. The instructions are not making any sense to me. Does anyone have a simpler more detailed instruction on how to install this? The last contribution I installed took 3 days and for someone with experience would have taken 15 min to a 1/2 hour. Is there anyone out there that helps installs contributions? :'( Anthony: [email protected]
Guest Posted June 1, 2007 Posted June 1, 2007 and for someone with experience would have taken 15 min to a 1/2 hour now how do you know that, especially if you say you have no php xp? Maybe it would take them a week. There are so many variables involved because it depends how custom a store is and when modules interfere with each other can be complicated and time consuming. My advice would be to try to integrate it after maing backups of the database and files, and if you stuck somewhere ask a question in the pwa support thread. Also read the various thread posts because there is useful info sometimes you find exactly the same problem mentioned there.
jwalker Posted June 2, 2007 Author Posted June 2, 2007 Good idea. Thanks. I know it would have taken 15 minutes to 1/2 hour becasue my actual work time was about 1/2 hour, the rest of the time was reading and trying to learn PHP. . .

It also depends on what other contribs that you have installed. Some make it really hard to integrate with others, and it is a case of trial and error.
usernamenone Posted June 3, 2007 Posted June 3, 2007 At first php can be intimidating. I set up a localhost for testing osc and that was when if found php fun. I could hack into code sometimes just to see what would happen if I deleted and or moved code around. Great for testing those mods and contributions before loading to a live site. Here is a list of WAMP's http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_WAMPs I am using Apache2 Triad but you may want to use something else.
