Wordpress On ZC [Support Thread]

Not dumb questions, but they are answered in the readme file for this mod.. Your questions refer to my original post for doing this. There have been some modifications since that original post..

Please go back to the link I provided. Read the full post, and download the zip file. There is a readme file included which gives you step by step instructions on how to implement this.. It's pretty straight forward..

Let me know if that helps..

Ok. I followed directions and installed to my directory. I can get to www.burnerbooks.com/blog and admin area. I installed WOZ sideboxes. I can see in zencart admin. When I turn them on I see on site. But, does not link to blog. I skipped step2 because I do want it to be embedded.

How do I get the website sidebox to link?

Look back over my previous posts. I was pretty detailed and gave explanations..... lol

It doesn't matter whether you use a simple text editer or the define page tool. Just put the language in the body of that file.

I'm not clear how WHERE you did this, and that's what I am trying to get clarification on.. Are you are saying you added this code to the main page using the define pages editor???

[DivaVocals]

I understand that, and I did look at your posts.. lol

However, there are other ways to add content to the main page which is why I was trying to get specific details on what you did.. But thanks anyway for your help.. I'm sure that I'll get it all figured out anyway, and as always I'll share my results with the community.. lol

Simple.. The sideboxes don't work because you skipped step #2..

because I do want it to be embedded.

I don't get what you are asking.. Earlier you said you wanted a SEPARATE blog. Which is why I suggested installing my sidebox only variation of WOZ..

My goal is to have blog OUTSIDE of my webstore. I do NOT want it embedded into my site. I want WP to link to my store and store to link to WP. It would have been nice to have archieves, etc link...but coud not get to work.

Yes, I did use the define main pages tool, and put it right at the top. But, I'm not sure that is the only way it could be done. It seems like this script could literally be put in any php file and it work out fine.

So I bundled up my WOZ "sidebox only" solution. I've submitted it to the downloads section (as a seperate mod) and hopefully it will be approved and made available as an add-on. In the meantime, I'm uploading it here in case anyone else wants to use this WOZ "sidebox only" solution instead of the embedded WOZ solution.

I take no credit for the code.. This is Hira's code with a few tweaks (as outlined below), and any files/code that are only needed for embedding stripped out.

I found that using this WOZ "sidebox only" method eliminates the compatibility issues with WOZ and a number of other plugins (particularly SEO mods, XML sitemap mods, and the Google Merchant mods). Using the WOZ sideboxes alone resolved these compatibility issues for me.

Hope there are others who will find this useful..

yes, it is actually great mod.

However, did all of you find the fatal error after installed this mod???

Once installed this mod on our site, please check your site at http://validator.w3.org/checklink, then you will find most of your links is retured 404 error.

any fix to the problem?

I'm going to assume from your follow-up post that this is not an issue... correct??

[Jerry5763837]

Generally speaking, if the page is retured to 404 error, that means this page is blind to robot, and it will not be scrawed and indexed.

Maybe this is a great mod to who does not care about SEO.

DivaVocals, any suggestion to fix this problem

Nope.. Especially since I am not sure what problem you are speaking of.....
