I am trying to make a simple portfolio website nothing fancy. I have to install wordpress clean for thee fourth time now :D I read on a GoDaddy Support Page that I should type in the domain I was trying to set up into my settings in the wordpress. Didn't seem that weird at first. I did that and now I can't log in anymore because for some reason wordpress won't accept the old domain. I couldn't take down the page because (1) the page didn't ask me if it was helpful (2) I am not a GoDaddy customer but apparently they killed my website :D
Also, funny domains in general. There are 0 Tutorials on how to set up a simple domain from another website than the hoster. It's a nightmare that (apparently) has gone on for weeks. I don't know what to do. It's so crazy. I mean, I can learn algebra, it will take time yes, It's gonna be difficult yes, but at least I don't have 5 billion 3 paragraph articles having conflicting opinions on what problem they are trying to solve. Becoming a developer today must be hell.
But my favorite part was when I realised that I had to type in the domain I want also in the settings of my hoster which I found in an article I only came across by realising that none of the domain support I had talked to could help me :D So I did that and what it did was my domain works BUT my website looked completely fucked up xD
It's crazy. You would think it would get easier.
