    In reply to: [Storefront] Remove Cart Button and Currency Amount from Header

    I solved it, every other CSS was using rules and wasn’t needed which is probably why it didn’t work. They were trying to remove it instead of hiding it.

    The Following Code added to the theme’s additional CSS worked and will not remove but hide the cart and currency info and retain the search feature:

    .site-header-cart .cart-contents {display:none;}

    Hope this helps people, since I couldn’t find it anywhere else on here searching support forums.

    according to bluehost its not possible to point my domain to my WP public IP without paying for their hosting services even though I own the domain. Soooo… I think I’m out of luck. Unless I can figure out how to create my own name server. I simply cannot justify spending money on hosting just to keep a domain registered correctly. I’d rather do it all myself. So, I’m going to see if creating my own DNS server is worth it. Then hopefully transfer my domain to myself. haha

    just wanted to say thanks for helping with all the topics you shared, it does clear up a lot of confusion between all this domain/ip stuff. I just can’t spend another 100+ just to redirect my site.

    well, I don’t want to use a web host, I have a domain through bluehost, but they limit content for stores, so I will be hosting it publicly from my Mac with my domain pointed to it. I see the guides here use MAMP or other third party/proxies which are not something I’m interested in. I do have it running great locally, so I believe it’s just configuring everything to use public IP now. I think I’m just missing some name server info on the bluehost side. The DNS stuff is confusing, it seems I can keep bluehost as DNS while still pointing to my IP, but again, it’s confusing. Bluehost did help forward to my public IP, now I have to find out why WP isn’t accessible from the outside. I did edit the wpconfig.php file to reflect my public ip, assigned a database user with that also and it won’t connect to the database after I access from outside my network. just says database connection issues. I’m just reading on a plugin that fixes your IP across the database entries, but I’m not sure if that’s needed since that post is about using a proxy. I’m kinda lost lol.

    I read to keep localhost as the user for the SQL database, but using my public IP to access WP just doesn’t connect to database then, when I use public IP in php file it returns that the username for the database is wrong on the wordpress login page.

    Thanks for the reply, I don’t like Mamp since it’s so limited. I have it working locally now with the new Apache and PHP installed through brew.

    Now I just need to find a good guide on making everything public after pointing my domain name to my public IP.

    I had to edit the php.ini file to allow the WP modules to run.
