Just keep in mind that it worked for me and may not work for you. Take it with a pinch of salt.

If you find something wrong with it - you got to let me know, Ok?

Enjoy!

Thank you for an introduction.
In fact, woz of a former version installed ZenCart and WordPress in a different directory.
I became the same directory from update of November, but there is a method to define ABSPATH directly.
I will refer to it by all means.

This is a really great contribution. Thank you!

I have two questions. I spent considerable time searching but I'm sure there must be an answer or perhaps someone could send a link to a solution that I may have overlooked.

Here goes. I had developed a ZC 1.3.7 and wp 2.0.5 locally (also has Ultimate SEO URL port of Chemo) Everything worked fine. I uploaded to production server. ZC works fine including SSL. WP Administration works fine after commenting out language file issue.

Here are the problems:

1. The wp-related sidebox links when clicked point to http://localhost/old_install_dir rather than new production directory. I currently have categories, pages, and archives side boxes published in left menu.

What file do I change this in? I have looked a number of times and the only files that reference localhost as a base are the dist-configure files which aren't used. I know I'm missing it somewhere.

2. When I click on any manufacturers in manufacturer sidebox I am taken to the main blog page rather than the mfgr page.

here is the site: h##p://www.trackhaus.com

I hope you can help. Many thanks!

Since my post I have discovered that the Ultimate SEO URLs are causing issues with the manufacturer sidebox. So please ignore that portion of my post (unless you know the solution :-). I will post that issue in its respective.

I still have a problem with the WP sidebox links. Any help on that one is much appreciated.

in /wp-admin/options-general.php I changed

Line 26 I changed:
<th scope="row"><?php _e('WordPress address (URI):') ?></th>

to:
<th scope="row"><?php _e('http://www.trackhaus.com') ?></th>

Line 30 I changed:
<th scope="row"><?php _e('Blog address (URI):') ?></th>

to:
<th scope="row"><?php _e('http://www.trackhaus.com') ?></th>

This did not help. The links are still going to http://localhost/myoldinstall

Since it did not work I changed file back to its orignal state. Here is phps version for your viewing:

http://www.trackhaus.com/wp-admin/options-general.phps

Any further thoughts? Your help is appreciated.

Thank you!

Bump. Does anyone have a solution for above?

I appreciate your help.

A good start for the troubleshooting would be to check if you can access your Wordpress directly, without any ZenCart involvement whatsoever. That's where I would start...

If it's integrated, i don't think that there's any way to do that, but if you mean do the sideboxes, etc. work, yes they do
