You missed one small step.. When copying WordPress into the same directory as ZenCart (which you would ONLY do if you intend to use the imbedding features of this mod) make sure you delete or rename the WordPress "index.php" file..

One additional small point. The embedding feature of this mod is supposed to work whether you put WordPress in the same directory as ZenCart or in a seperate directory. However there are specific reasons between putting WordPress files in the same directory or a different directory as ZenCart. These differences breaks down as follows:
If you plan to use SEO, or sitemap tools, then it probably works best if both ZenCart abd WordPress are in the same directory (someone using these tools will have to confirm -- in theory, this makes sense though)
If you want to use the WOZ sideboxes ONLY, then you should install WordPress in it's own directory (along with a few other mods to the install instructions -- I posted the how-to in this thread)
If you don't care about using the WOZ sideboxes by themselves (no embedded blog) or you don't care about SEO or other sitemap mods, then it's up to you to decide whther you want WP files in their own directory or in the same directory as Zen Cart..
Please note that there are reported issues with using this mod with the latest version of WordPress.. Most of them seem to revolve around errors and strange behavior when embedding WordPress.. There are some workarounds, but this mod is far from perfect, and it appears that the original author is no longer supporting it. Enjoy!
Hello All,
I want to integrate the wordpress-mu with my zencart I dont want wordpress.
I have succesfully integrated the wordpress with zen cart by installing zen cart wordpress integration module .
But I need integration of zen cart with wordpress -mu.
The one problem which I am facing is in the admin of wordpress-mu when I tried to change blog address url to zen cart address url, it give me
FATAL error saying that
"Could Not Find Blog! "
on both my zen cart and worpress-mu.
But the above process is working fine with simple wordpress integration and I can see the side boxes and blog post on my zencart website.
Is there any one to help me out.
Hello All,
I have been going crazy for hours searching the forum and can't believe no one has had this problem. I have Zen cart installed in my root directory and wordpress in /blog.
I am using Zen Cart 1.3.8a
And the latest version of Wordpress.
There is something in the .htaccess file preventing me from navigating to www.example.com/blog
when I rename the file I can access www.example.com/blog but this causes server errors with the Zen cart installation.
Any advice would be really helpful:wacko:
Hello All,
Misty I have read your suggestion.
First of all will let you know about how I install worpress and my test zen cart cart then what is the problem I am facing.
1) Here is the location of my wordpress /data/www/wordpress
2) Here is the location of my zencart /data/www/test_shop
3) I have created one database which has table of worpress and zencart.
4) the location of wordpress-config.php is in the zencart folder test_shop\includes\extra_configures\wordpress-config.php.
I can see the side box of wordpress on my zencart shop but when i click on the link like about, Uncategorized... then it redirects me to index page . I cant see the wordpress posting and comments .PHP Code:
define ('ABSPATH',$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/wordpress/');
So please let me know where I am wrong.
Thx
Incorrect path i suspect.. see previous post atCode:4) the location of wordpress-config.php is in the zencart folder test_shop\includes\extra_configures\wordpress-config.php.
PHP Code:
define ('ABSPATH',$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/wordpress/');
http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showpo...&postcount=274
Thanks for your reply misty but path is correct .
I have checked it.
If it were correct then wordpress would be working,Quote:
but path is correct
but you say it is not...
Path should be similar to zencart config...with allowance
made for fact you are configuring wordpress..
i.e.
Code:define('ABSPATH', '/home/myservername/public_html/blog/');
1) Here is the location of my wordpress /data/www/wordpress
2) Here is the location of my zencart /data/www/test_shop
and path in zen cart config
Should I install wordpres again in the directoryPHP Code:
define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/data/www/test_shop/');
/data/www/test_shop/NEW_INSTALLTION_OF_WORDPRESS
Let me know your concerns.
Then if your zencart works with that config, try
Code:define ('ABSPATH', '/data/www/wordpress/');
