hi!
I am starting from scratch with our website and need some explanations please!
Our setup is as follows:
- We are resellers of hundereds of different brands of products
- Each brand has a list of products
(Jams, Olive Oils, Sweets etc...)
- We have a website but are recreating it using zen-cart
i would like to know:
a) What is the difference between the Product types and Catagories as it applies to us (how i understand it so far is that the Catagory is the Brand and the Product type is "Jams" or "Olive Oils" etc?) what confuses me then is that under each product i can select the product manufacturer?! help?
b) I have added several products as examples but have no categories setup and as a result am getting the following message "WARNING: You have Products in the Top Level Category. This will cause pricing to not work properly in the Catalog. Products found: 7", do i need to delete the examples and start by entering the catagories first then the product types? (if that is the case can i backup these products as i need to use them as examples on how to setup each product)
c) can i import the products from our previous website under the setup i create in zen cart? if i can how do i do this? if i cant does that mean entering each product in individually?
sorry this is so long i am just trying to understand it all!!
