    Default Using zen cart for an existing store

    We have an existing, functioning online store. The only payment method we currenty accept is paypal; after customers are done adding products to their cart, they are taken to paypal when they are ready to checkout. We would like to use zen cart so we can also use credit cards as well as paypal (authorize.net). How can I switch to zen cart for my shopping cart functionality without re-inputting all my product data and without recreating my website (each product already has pulldown menus and an add to cart button).

    Default Re: Using zen cart for an existing store

    This is a static PayPal cart you have?

    If so, then you will need to add all attributes and products to Zen Cart. Check the addons section above for Easy Populate to make it a bit faster...but none the less, unless you can export your current products and product attributes they will need to be created in Zen Cart.
