    Default Working with Expression Web & the ZenCart

    Hi:

    I'm new here and trying to figure all this out...a webmaster I am not! I've downloaded the Zen Cart and found the Cherry Zen template by SageFisher (it looks great)

    This new site is going to be a sister site to the one I already have. It' for machine embroidery designs all instand downloadables so I won't have to do anything with shipping and taxes. For my other site I create pages in Expression Web. What I'd like to know is...can I work with the Cherry Zen template in Expression Web and customize it with my own header and things before I publish it to my site?

    I can't figure out how to get the template into Expression Web or if it's possible. I guess what I'm trying to do is create a default template for all my pages. Really hope that I'm making sense to somebody.

    If anybody can point me in the right direction, I would be one happy camper.

    Thanks,

    Expression Web - Front Page samo samo---

    A html site builder - While zencart is php and already does the page assembly for all your pages from the template pieces

    Thanks...I think that I know what you're talking about, but I'm in trouble because I dont' have a clue where to begin. Back to the drawing board for me!

    Exactly what are you needing to do? Have you installed Zen Cart on your hosting server yet?
    Please do not PM for support issues: a private solution doesn't benefit the community.

    Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.

    Hi Kim:

    No...I haven't installed the Zen Cart to my hosting server yet. Apparently tomorrow they are going to add my second domain. I'm assuming that I have to wait for them to do that before I can install the Zen Cart.

    What I wanted to do was put the Zen Template into my Expression Web and start working on building my site there. I guess I mean to customize the template with my own header, background colours and such.

    I'm really green with all this stuff and winging most of it.

    The tutorials/FAQ's link in the top nav bar on this page is a source for most of what you need

    I entered "header" into the seach term and many come up - like this one
