This fact is actually included in the rokstories tutorial for many months already. under point 4.2. but who read that and or remembered it?!? So anyway hopefully if you have this problem and find this article then you know how to fix your problem. If you are lucky then you found this solution faster than I did. I was banging my head against the wall for almost two hours before I found the solution.

Godaddy Spokes Person Danica Patrick

Godaddy you are killing me. First you put more than 5 thousand websites on every one of your servers and then my sites are as slow as molasses on a cold day.

THEN… you up-sell me on your new Grid hosting. Its not supposed to be slow. Well it is. I have taken countless hours to migrate my sites from one hosting account to the other and its painfully slow. The admin interface is complicated and slow. I waste hours per week waiting on your interface.

I guess you not really interested in your customers! Godaddy is going to go the way of AOL and Myspace. You are going to get too big and top heavy. You are getting too separated from the people who made you, and then everyone is going to jump ship and leave you for dead.

Wake up and start offering premium services for those of us who need it. I don’t mind paying more just give me an easy to manage service that you don’t stuff umpteen thousand websites on a single server. Stop being so cheap!

Plus your whole admin user experience is getting too cluttered. I just want to manage my domains and my hosting accounts. You make me click like 3 links to even get to them once I log in. If I wanted complicated and worthless messages and screens in my way I would have stayed with NetSol.

I also am not interested in your dedicated accounts; the reason I use you is so that I don’t have to babysit my own servers anymore.

And please don’t come back with some rhetoric about how its just me. Its not. Many of my clients and my sites users are complaining and they are from all over the world.

I know you don’t care about me and my 3 hosting accounts and 100 plus domain names. I am just a small fish. But if anyone is listening; the writing is on the wall. And I am going to be the first to start taking my hosting business elsewhere.

Because you don’t care about the basic reasons you are in business.

All my sites are slow. Static or dynamic it does not make a difference. Loading a reasonably large graphic or a flv file or heaven forbid a Joomla site. You might as well just go get some coffee.

When you do a lookup on how many sites are on one IP address on a godaddy server it returns thousands. This is the same on all my accounts.

Also logging into your web admin is slow. Slow redraw, slow loading. I have the fastest computers with broadband connections. I am on Mac so no spyware or viruses slowing me down.

Again I pull my experience from 3 different locations. And from people who use my sites and complain how slow they are.

I am not comparing godaddy with anyone else. I hate to even touch my regular shared account. It takes forever to get anything done. My grid account is just barely functional.

FTP via a third party program is slow. And the other night it took close to a minute to even get a directory listing.

Tech support is always friendly and helpful. The issue is godaddy puts too many sites on too few resources the demand can not be met.

I am just upset because your sales team told me the solution to this problem was your grid hosting. Well its becoming just as slow as your regular shared hosting.

Then next stage is to charge me double and put a half or a 1/3 the amount of sites on one server. Maybe this is the solution. I am not going to wait long before I start migrating my websites to another provider. I have to get some work done.

Yes grid is better than regular shared. And I was one of the first Grid customer a few months back. And in the beginning it was great. But every week its getting slower and slower.

Yes I have tried hostgator regular shared account and its much better. faster and much better functionality with .htaccess and phpini But their admin interface is not as friendly. However I not regarding this as a permanent solution. because what is to stop them from overloading the server I am on in the future.

I have recently found a hosting provider named arvixe with what they call a business class hosting. Its exactly what I think I need. You pay twice as much for a shared account and they put far less accounts on a shared resource. They also have limiters in place so that if someone’s script starts to eat all the memory etc. Then it shuts that script down.

Now to the task of actually moving them.

Hope this helps someone

A file that starts with a period is one of the files that OS X hides by default so that you don’t accidentally delete and or alter it thus messing up your file system. However, there could be times that you want access to those hidden mac files. Strangely Apple has not made easy as toggling a menu item in the Finder.

Here is a simple and free solution for you to follow the following few steps. After writing a line or two of code you’ll be able to use Apple’s Automator software to create a plugin that you can use to toggle the view of hidden files from within Finder.

After opening Automator, select Automator from within the Applications Library on the left-hand side. You’ll now see a number of different built-in actions that are available to the Automator application.

Select Run Shell Script from the list of available actions, and drag it into your workflow.

Type (or paste in) the following code into the Run Shell Script text box:

defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE

killall Finder

The one file that was missing was toolbar.kunena.php. For reference for anyone else finding this, the file toolbar.kunena.php is found in the root folder of the archive (tar) and needs to go into administrator/components/com_kunena.

If this does not solve your problem then uninstall Kunena forum then download and install the .zip version and not the tar version.

In the root directory go to

> modules\mod_footer\tmpl\default.php

In this line either comment it or delete it

<div><?php echo JText::_( ‘FOOTER_LINE2′ ); ?></div>

Save and replace.

Folow this path: joomla admin > menus > mainmenu > home > parameters (system) and set page title to hide.

VirtueMart does not work very well at all with Joomla SEF URL’s.  If you think that this doesn’t apply to your install, then you should reconsider; this is the first thing to do when you have some sort of linking issue. Actually they say you should never have enabled it until you are done with your site. If you want SEF URL’s, its recommended get one of the third party extensions for SEO links.

If your add to cart is not working. Then switch off your AJAX add to cart. This function is known to have major issues with other javascripts, like the ones that may be implemented in your template or in other various modules or extensions.  LOCATION: Joomla backend-> Components-> Virtuemart-> Configuration(under Admin TAB)-> Site(TAB)-> Layout(section)-> Configuration
