Success at last!!!...
This is the site:
http://www.pineappleessentials.com/
and this is the shopping cart:
http://www.pineappleessentials.com/p...entials_store/
and that is how I wanted the integration to be from the begining.
I am using Zen-Cart 1.3.8 and easyembed2.0a
(yes, got it to work)
Ok,... now a recount of what I was doing wrong and hopefully this will helps others avoid the loooong hours of frustration I went through.
First, the file structure I had:
- Home page
- Exfoliant page
- etc, etc,
- pineapple_essentials_store (this is where zen cart lies)
- Frame-Cart page
(this is where I wanted the cart to show through)
I followed the recomendations in the forum but Nothing!
most likely my absolute paths were wrong....
Then, its kind of embarrasing to admit this but, I re-read the install instructions and realized there was a better alternative:
The new file structure that worked:
- Home page
- Exfoliant page
- etc, etc
- pineapple_essentials_store (this is where zen cart lies)
------------ Frame-Cart page
(this now resides inside the p*store folder)
in the easy_embed/config.php file I used this line:
$this->templateFile = DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'Frame-Cart.html';
and just to be sure I put my images, css and scripts folder for the Frame-Cart page inside the store folder too, just make sure the links in your header point correctly... an easy way to test this is (in my particular example) to type the absolute path:
http://www.pineappleessentials.com/p...rame-Cart.html
and you see your page with all the css and images, etc. without the zen-cart.
after that you have just to start making changes to the relevant css files, and for this the BEST TOOL EVER!! is firebug (if you are using Firefox, of course) it will tell you exactly which line of css is doing what and from which file (the embed template or yours) and you can even change or suppress values to test results!
Just remember to keep in mind the info given in posts #322 and #327 and you'll be Ok.
JOsh, thanks again for a great module... I'll make sure you have "coffee and muffins" on me.
Thank you all,
