Editing my shopping cart page - how, if I can't find the "page"?

[jasong1968]

Hi there.

Uploaded everything to my server, and I can successfully access my Zen homepage with no errors. I can get to my shopping cart page, the url is:

/index.php?main_page=shopping_cart

but can't find anything to edit in the Zen folder on my server.

Can someone point me in the right direction, please?

Thank you!

Exactly what are you wanting to change?

[jasong1968]

Not sure I know how to answer that. I want to set up the page.

Where can I find it?

And you seem to be under the impression that there is a "page" file somewhere that holds everything, and that you can just open and edit.
That's not the way Zen Cart or any dynamic e-commerce platform works; there are many PHP files that process various bits of information depending on what the viewer has requested, and they work together to assemble the page's HTML output. Once the viewer clicks onto another page, the output vanishes and is replaced by the new assembled page. These pages exist nowhere but in the viewer's browser.

Ok - gjh42 - I understand now,

Rod, ty for the link.

Unfortunately, that link doesn't tell me all that much. Is there somewhere I can find a tutorial on precisely what to do?

Thank you.

HOW the hell am I supposed to answer that? I cant change what is not there. There is nothing there....if there is nothing there to change, how am I supposed to tell you what I want to change? It's not like I have a page with my items, and want to change something....I HAVE NOTHING. HOW CAN I CHANGE SOMETHING THAT DOES NOT EXIST????

This is what I have:

That's ALL that I have. You keep asking me what I want to change....what are you talking about? CHANGE WHAT????

You unknowingly answered the question in post 13: what you want to change is to display the new products which are not currently showing on your page. What's so hard about saying "I want to change it to display new products that are not showing now"?

And "Zen Cart admin control panel" means only one thing: the page you log into to manage your store, not the folder system. You have created products, so you have been in the admin, right? Login to your admin, hover on Configuration, click on Index Listing.
