Please Consider using another ISP. If you would consider another ISP, choose
Dataguard AS from Norway
I use Dataguard for all my work. I know they are located in Norway. But that
does not make any problem for
all the customers i have. I serve customers in USA and all over Europe, even
ASIA.
www.dataguard.no
Or call me at 55119400 and i will set you up.
If you choose this i can help you with the source code. I have 6 shops
running with Freetrade on the server.
I have also tried Fishcart. And i find it to miss many of the features
Freetrade offer. I also noticed that Freetrade
is much more customiable then Fishcart.
I feel that there are many of us that develops Freetrade. Something that is
great for each other. If you need something you
have alot of places to look at in Freetrade CVS and this list.
The more people we are using freetrade, the better it gets. If you dont know
i think Leon and the team is working on v.2.0
And if i am not wrong i guess it will be one of the most powerful platforms
out there..
If you would like my advice dont hacetate to choose Freetrade. And consider
to change ISP.
Another thing is that you dont need Shell access to setup Freetrade. I done
it wthout at dataguard. But dataguard also
offer Shell.
