Question About Adding A Blog

[SocalPotHead]

Alright, Well I want to add a page for a blog. What would be the best way to do that?

Set up the blog at yoursite.com/blog or blog.yoursite.com and create an EZ-Page linking to it.

What I mean is. How would I install it. I looked at a few on here but I'm not sure witch one would be ideal. I have a tab at the top page for a "Blog" and I want to have some type of way for people to blog about products and whatnot.

I like Wordpress. You can see what I described at this site:

Click General Info then Mama C's Blog. I customized the Wordpress install to match her site. Note: The site isn't using Zen, but the concept is the same.

And if you want to embed Wordpress in your Zencart site, I can recommend the instructions and files available at http: //www.numinix.com/blog/2009/09/26/integrating-wordpress-into-zen-cart-1-3-8a/.

That's what I want. What would be the best way to install it and make it work like that.

First, either setup a subdomain of blog.yoursite.com or a simple folder of yoursite.com/blog at your main site. Then go get the latest version of Wordpress and follow the instructions to install it in /blog. It's an amazingly simple install - much simpler than Zen Cart. Just make sure to create a new database for use with Wordpress.

After you've got it setup and customized the way you want it, just create an EZ-Page linking to it.
