Before I get lost I thought it’s better to ask if anyone has a high level view of the steps or process to go through of converting a graphical design into a Zen Cart store.
Since we have templates, overrides, style sheets, etc. it seems wise to ask before I make a mess of things. I see lots of tidbits but no grand overview.
What is the correct way to modify a Zen Cart system? I see some people hack the html in addition to modifying the style sheet.
How do I know what I can / should modify and secondly where do I do it? For the “where” part I’m guessing that I should first check the admin control panel, then the css and finally the html. The “what” is more of what not to change so I don’t break something. It also goes hand in hand with the where since there may be more than one way to do something, so is there a preferred way?
Maybe I missed reading a doc that explains all of this? Or it’s more of a free for all as long as I protect myself from future upgrades?
Still a newbie so all comments are greatly appreciated. Thanks.
