Wordpress On ZC [Support Thread]

[DivaVocals]

I had integrated wordpress into zen-cart, however, for some reason, wordpress sent 404 error to all zen-cart links except the homepage although all the links are valid.
my zen-cart is installed in the root folder while wordpress in /blog/ folder. I'd like to disable the wrong response code sent from wordpress. Is there anyone here having the same problem and find a solution?

It sounds very much like you have the Numinix Blog Embedding solution installed and NOT the WOZ module (for which this support thread is for..)

There is a support thread for the Numinix Blog Embedding solution.. I don't know it off the top of my head, but if you do a forum search you will find it..

The module installed is WOZ not Numinix solution since I can see all the woz files from Hira. Because the original wordpress was too old, I just upgraded to 3.8. I don't know which file I messed up. I will have to follow hira's way from the beginning again. Does anyone have install wordpress 3.8 in zen-cart 1.51 in Hira's solution?

Unfortunately Hira's method is very much outdated. I suggest you use Divas module or the Numinix method.
For the record, Divas module is by far the easier way.

I found that every time I selected the default in permalink setting in wordpress, all our pages in zen-cart display normally. If I chose any other options, eg. Post name, I will get 404 error in my zen-cart page. Therefore, it might be rewriting part which is causing this problem. I use Ultimate SEO module for rewriting the zen-cart urls. Wordpress seems to have its own rewriting mechanism. These two might have some conflict in term of rewriting url. I am just wondering how the other two methods solved this confilict. Can anyone shed some light on this? Thank you!

You will need to ask any detailed questions regarding the Numnix solution in the support thread for the Numinix solution..

Hi, Diva, I did not use Numinix method! I downloaded woz module in zen-cart.com and followed exactly the procedure from Hira step by step.

The only problem I am having right now is that I can not rewrite wordpress urls using permalinks, which will mess up all Zen-Cart links. Ultimate SEO can not rewrite integrated wordpress urls, either.

What is the correct setting for permalinks setting in wordpress for your method or Numinix method?

Let me try putting this a little more clearly..

The WOZ module does not work and has not worked with current versions of Zen Cart or WordPress for quite some time.. It is an ABANDONED, outdated, BROKEN module which is why you are having the issues you are reporting.

It is NOT RECOMMENDED that anyone use WOZ. Picandnix correctly suggested that you should look at more updated methods to link WordPress to Zen Cart for these reasons. There is no more support or updates for WOZ and there are BETTER means to integrate WordPress and Zen Cart available.

My WordPress plugins and Zen Cart modules (which you can read about on my website) and the Numinix methods work with ANY permalink settings and work with all current versions of Zen Cart and WordPress. If you have detailed questions about the Numinix blog integration method, you need to ask those question in the Numinix support thread. You can contact me via my website if you have questions about my WordPress plugins and Zen Cart modules.

You will find that there is no support or updates for WOZ and there haven't been any in quite some time.. (a quick page back through this thread and you can confirm what I am saying..)

Just give you an update. Finally, I used Numinix method to integrate wordpress into zen-cart. Work great. The only thing not working is wordpress rss, which is always give error message possible due to fail to validate w3c standard in IE due invalid characters. but in firefox, rss works great. I don't know anyone here has any experience on this issue. Thank you!
