after first setup config I can't see website folder in HTDOCS

Angela,

there is no database in GS, so what do you mean?

I installed GetSimple on localhost with WAMP or other LocalServer without working mail server many times and had no problem with that

and when I install on a webserver at a hoster, you can always correct the settings if your internal links point wrong...

did you use "Support / Health Check" to find out what goes wrong?

And check the website settings and correct the URL, more info here:

PS: if something somehow points back to your localhost... clear all caches, maybe? That could help
