I have several domains here at Godaddy and several websites and a shopping cart here. Reading all this and taking a look at the website Builder V7...I am not impressed. I really think Godaddy dropped the ball on this one. I will have to look elsewhere for a web builder as this looks like 2 steps forward and 25 backwards.Who ever headed this project should have taken the time to poll users as what they needed. As a side note and off topic a bit, The lack of data backups and user ability to control and access these that Godaddy has is ridiculous in the day and age of cheap data storage.. I have a shopping cart here that I can't restore data from or back up. I live in dread that should something happen to my cart and items, I will lose everything. Simple concepts like this escape Godaddy's planning team... its really unacceptable for techs to miss important and obvious features. ( and yes, I have brought this to godaddy's attention several times) Well this is a real Bummer. I have several domains here at Godaddy and several websites and a shopping cart here.

I don't care if they register. I will double check to make sure they did indeed purchase the product before I approve it for publication. Please give me the control over this option.How about updating this to allow no registration?

I spent the morning trying to figure out how to integrate the quick shopping cart using V6 instructions. I finally threw in the towel and opened a ticket with support. Support tells me I'm on V7 and points me to the guide for V7 never bothering to mention I can't even do what I want do in V7. *Pulling Hair Out* I just signed up and didn’t realize that V7 was new and dummed down.

After spending hours trying to fix the issue, I decided to delete the entire site and rebuild it from scratch. (frustrated).
