silverglade Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Hi, I want to try to break down an ecommerce solution or shopping cart app into basic parts I can learn like "image gallery" , or "registration". Does anyone know of what a breakdown of the parts would be that I could learn separately? Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks.

trq Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Surely you need to break this down yourself. If you don't know what a cart does, you'll need to do some investigating, Or, do you really want us to do your work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 I find it sort of disturbing that you're charging people money to do this while you ask other people how to do it and while you're looking for a teacher. Borderline scamming if you ask me. If I'm paying someone to do a job for me, I expect they're competent enough to do it without having a teacher at their side.

Â I often laugh a little inside when looking at the freelance board. I mean, you people do realize people can search the board for your threads? Â The first thing I would do if I where to ever hire someone from the freelance board would be to search through all the posts seeing if they are asking or answering questions.

silverglade Posted August 21, 2010 Author Share Posted August 21, 2010 I am charging for design , not for PHP . I don't appreciate the comments or suggesting that I'm scamming. Please, if you have this kind of thing to say to me in the future , do it in a PM please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Your website claims that you have skills in developing websites using PHP and MySQL. It also clearly says "Web Developer" in the header. Â I don't think I'm being rude, but rather honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverglade Posted August 21, 2010 Author Share Posted August 21, 2010 one sec, i better check my website. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverglade Posted August 21, 2010 Author Share Posted August 21, 2010 ok so it COULD be kind of misleading. I say i have experience with "MYSQL and PHP applications", which is basically, an email form, a registration, a database update form, and maybe a few other small things. So I wasn't exactly lying, I just maybe came across as being some kind of expert. Anyway, the fact is, I'm charging $499 for a 10 page website with some php functionality. That's it. Im not "borderline scamming". If I was an expert in php I wouldn't need a teacher or this website, but the fact is, I'm not a php expert, and when I ask a newbie question like "can I break down a shopping cart or can someone help me", I don't expect the website Administrators to start flaming me. I am selling design, not php, so why am I not able to ask a php question on a php website? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverglade Posted August 21, 2010 Author Share Posted August 21, 2010 that's pretty much all I have to say about it. I'm going to ignore this thread now. Please delete the thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cags Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Your post in the freelance board doesn't once state explicitly (nor even implies IMO) that you will simply be doing the design side of things. You advertise that you will make a 'custom website'. Your 'About Me' section states that you are a 'web designer / developer' and also further down on the page you state 'PHP is the main language I use for the websites I create.'. Your resume claims you have created two complete database driven sites. Overall I would say you are giving the impression you are capable of something which you are clearly not. Â You should consider advertising yourself as a web designer and then perhaps mention that you have basic experience in PHP. Â P.S. Just out of interest, how old are you? Your site seems to imply that you graduated with a degree in 1997, which would seem to make you at the minimum 30. This really seem at odds with you clause of "My tutor must be male because I have a girlfriend" in your tutor post. Not to mention it also seems at odds with the amount of money that you claim you need to earn in order to live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
