    getting going on my first dynamic website

    I have recently downloaded BlueVoda (love it!!!), however, im not sure that it has all the tools neccesary to build the caliber of website that i have envisioned, or more likely i dont have the working knowledge of how to use the tools to get done what i want. I was wondering if i could get some feedback to wether or not it is possible and maybe some hints on how to do it.

    Question 1.

    I want to create a site that has user accounts and a form of website currency (i.e. website points) and allow users to purchase the points via a paypal transaction. I understand that i could creat a table within my DB that has a points coloum but I'm having difficulty linking the success page from paypal to the posting of the points.

    Question 2.

    I also want the users to be able to spend the points on the website with a onetouch button that automatically deducts one point from the user account and posts it to counter that can be seen by all viewing the website in a near real time manner.

    Question 3.

    I would like users to be able to post pictures and descriptions seperate from there account that can be seen by other members. Is there a way that BlueVoda can create a webpage to be viewed and subsequently deleted it after X amount of time?



    These are my main speed bumps right now, is it possible to do this via BlueVoda or will i have to code most of it myself?

    On a side note: I am currently in the process of finding a domain name that suits my website, is it possible to purchase webhosting without a domain name while i find one that i like or will i have to use a domain and replace it when i find the one i like? I am asking because as of right now i cant test my website for functionality due to the fact that i dont have a server to post my DB on which is a major part of the website.

    I would apprecieate any insight or help that i can get, thank you very much for outstanding product and support system.

    All web hosting accounts must be linked to domains names, it is not possible to purchase without a domain name attached...

      Thank you for the information, how difficult is it to transfer names once i get it established? Is it as simple as buying a new domain name and transferring it to my site or does it have to be a new webhosting account and trasnfering the site?

        Transferring your existing domain name to VodaHost is very easy. After you create your VodaHost account. Our support team will put in a transfer request with your current company and usually (depending on good your current companies support staff are) the transfer will be complete in under 48 hours.
