intergration of ZenCart into existing site...

[bbk^vale]

Hi everyone,

I've spent sometime this evening reading about ZenCart with a view to using it for a jewellery site I am developing (for a friend).

The site was actually conceived before she thought about selling online.. What I am attempting to do is 'plug' a shopping cart into various elements of the site.

I.E. There are only a few pages on the site that will need to offer any selling. So rather than use a cart 'as the site' I want to use cart elements as and where.

Is this possible with Zen? it seems very customisable but am I expecting too much?

I'm not looking for directions on the editing, just whether its possible with Zen? Has anyone managed what Im trying?

Thanks in advance for any reply.

Yes, you are expecting too much. Zen Cart is designed to be "the site".

It is actually possible, whether or not it's recommended or a good idea. Someone posted today about doing it, and some pros and cons have been presented. Just because you know how to get your look with HTML doesn't make it the best or easiest long-term solution.
