I have some questions about how Zen Cart works

[Merlinpa1969]

immersive,
what cant be done in the zc templates?

you are only limited by your imagination,

and if you have more than a few products updating html each time there is a product change is gonna suck

A similar sort of question was asked recently in

I wonder if this would make a good FAQ question, because it does seem to come up periodically.

Immersive, my understanding was that GoDaddy's shopping cart product worked this way, but I just looked at a write up

that seemed to suggest that it is a complete system as well. Perhaps if you were to shop
around and look for ISPs that offered add-on cart functionality that would yield some results.
Here's something else:

Remember though that with solutions like this, you're going to have to pay some sort of monthly fee based on the size of your catalog. You might be better off in the long run just converting to Zen Cart even though it means abandoning your current site design.

Good luck,
Scott

Yeah I think you're right. I probably will just go with Zen Cart. I was hoping to not have to learn and figure out the template system lol. But once I do, I will have a much better site.
