One thing that i did not mention that I probably should have is that these items will be tough to update so you might want to consider making a custom template for this. You can find some more information about templates for this plugin here: https://docs.woothemes.com/document/woocommerce-one-page-checkout/#section-4.

@dbowland sorry for the confusion by what I said earlier about the font being from somewhere else. I meant that the font was inheriting traits from your theme. If you go to the theme’s style sheet at https://mynaturaldeodorant.com/wp-content/themes/WCM010014/style.css and change the font-family portion to what is below. This will change other items so just be aware that this is something to consider.

code,
kbd,
tt,
var,
samp,
pre {
    font-family: 'Open Sans', Arial, Helvetica, serif;
    font-size: 15px;
    /*-webkit-hyphens: none;
	-moz-hyphens:    none;
	-ms-hyphens:     none;
	hyphens:         none;*/
    line-height: 1.6;
}

@sav56 what are you using to to run WordPress on your Windows 7 PC? If you have not already tried, there are a few different programs that can help install a localhost on your computer. MAMP has a free Windows version and a PRO version but the one I run into the most is the WAMP. This is built specifically for Windows.

Got it. I didn’t see it on my mobile. The theme seems to be handing the white font off to the checkout page. If you go to your theme and edit the style sheet that is at the address (https://mynaturaldeodorant.com/wp-content/themes/WCM010014/css/isotop-port.css?ver=4.4.2), you can find the code below and edit it as I have to remove the white text color. The reason that I commented the code out is in the case that it removes or causes some other functionality to be removed. I hope this helps.

pre, code {
    /* color: white; */
    font-family: 'Monaco', monospace, sans-serif;
}

@dbowland you very likely have to modify the style sheet within the plugin. Unless the style is inhereted, it has its own style sheet in the plugin folder. If you provide a link to the single checkout page on your site, it will make it easier to pinpoint the exact issue.

@nzamin WordPress was developed as a blogging platform and is easy to expand upon that base characteristic. You can easily make WordPress work for you by adding plugins that are already developed or you can simply create your own. If you would like to see what it takes to make a plugin for WordPress, the best place to start would be on the developer portion of the this website. The Plugin Handbook can be found at this address. Good luck.

@djurisko can you share a little more about your server information? Are you on a dedicated server, managed, using GoDaddy or Bluehost, etc.? Any information, including your address, would be great to have.

@cisny, what you want to accomplish is very possible with a Windows Server 2012 install. The VM is the crucial part. I have set it up two time previously to have a Linux VM within the Server 2012 environment and it worked really well.

To elaborate on That’s unless you need the install to be on its own domain, mentioned by @songdogtech, MultiSite comes out of the box with an ability to get use subdomains. To use different domains for MultiSite, you pretty much have to do some domain mapping, etc.

For what you would like to do, I would think that the easiest of the scenarios is to stay away from MultiSite and allow the sites to have their own instances installed in folders or however you want to structure your file system. That would make your life, as an admin, substantially easier, in my opinion. BTW, installing a linux server was just a preference. I know you can accomplish it with Windows server but it will be slightly harder to find tutorials to accomplish that. The knowledgebase is much larger with WordPress and different Linux server distributions.

Hi onokomta,

The thing that seems to be causing you not to be able to access your WordPress installation is that your web server is on HostGator and the domain is not yet pointing to the HostGator account. Below is a link that shows you how to point your domain to your hosting account (HostGator). I don’t really use Gandi.net to register domains but sometimes it takes a little bit for the DNS settings to refresh and point to the host. Hope this helps.

@danielmccormick18, I think the best way to do this would be to delete the theme and reinstall it. The features for the theme should not be reset but any of the code modifications will be reset with a reinstall.

To reinstall, you can:

Re-upload the theme via FTP
Download the theme as it is from the theme download page (in your case: https://www.ads-software.com/themes/accesspress-parallax/)
Go to the theme directory (../wp-content/themes/YourTheme).
Delete your theme’s files.
Unzip it on your local computer.
Re-upload the theme to the theme folder.

Through the Dashboard
Delete the theme using the delete button in the appearance tab for the Dashboard.
Click on the install theme button.
Look up the theme and install the theme.
That should be it and you should have the theme back to its original code base state.

I have to second what MBWD has mentioned. MAMP is probably the easiest way to set up your MAC for development. MAMP pretty much takes your different elements that were installed using terminal and gives you a GUI interface. I have the more experience working with Linux but the overall install is similar. One of the things with installing it manually, is one component may not be on the right version or one element is not communicating with the other. I would say that it would be easier, if you do not want to use MAMP, to uninstall all of your localhost items and follow a tutorial dedicated to installing the item such as the one provided by Keith Driscoll above. Hope this helps.

No problem. I’m glad you got everything working even though it was not exactly how you wanted it to end up. If I test it and have any success, I will drop you a line.

Good luck with your project…jv8080.

Hi Novice999,

Looking through the XAMPP forums, I am thinking that this is the problem that you are having with your XAMPP 1.8.1 install. If you read that, you will find that there was somewhat of a mistake in telling people to install a program without installing the needed compiler add-on. Making a long story short, you need to go get Microsoft’s Visual C++ runtime library and install it.

As for the scripts, I was just wondering if the scripts that you were running were out of date and not communicating with WordPress but that is not a the case thinking about it since you are running recent versions of XAMPP.

As for your live site, I see that you have 3.4.2 running so it is a good idea to keep your local and live WordPress sites in sync.

The error that you were getting is a connection issue such as the ones mentioned by ricardusexa. Let me know if 1.8.1 works with the Visual C++ add-on.

Can you share a link to the site that you are having issues with?

That is very weird. Just out of curiosity, which version of Firefox are you running?
