Wordpress On ZC [Support Thread]

[loosefast]

ok, i have been at this for about 24 hours straight now, i finally have no errors, but not much is showing up ether.

here is the site

http://extendmydesign.com/zencart-pp/

just a very rough test by the way.

the info in the sideboxes is showing up, but when you click on the links, nothing loads, the same with the blog posts as well, nothing.

im thinking it is a setting or something i missed, could someone take a look at it and let me know?
your time and effort is much appreciated, thank you

Great mod by the way, just hope to get it working.

Look at your system information in the zen admin to see if you have php 5.

yes, and thank you for the quick reply
anything else that could be doing this?

I think WOZ was developed on PHP 4 and as far as I know everyone having this issue is on php 5.

this looks like the same issue rewriting links does it not?

i'm no expert on this topic, but i noticed all your links include the the filename (/index.php?main_page=wordpress&...), but the resulting page i landed on does not (/?main_page=wordpress&...)

cheers

ooh, that stinks, does zen have to be in php4, or can just wp be in php4. i can install php4 for wp, but my client already has had is site live on 5 now for some time. is there any other way around this?

Some hosts allow 4 or 5 to be switched off/on in the site control panel. Might be worth a try ...on a test site...

Another quirk I noticed about the new version of WOZ is that in order to create EZ pages, you have to turn off the WOZ sidebox then create your EZ page. Only then did the page and the EZ page menu itself appear...After that you can turn on the WOZ sidebox

Apps developed in PHP4 should run in PHP5.. I haven't had a chance to test WOZ, but using only the sideboxes from this version, I don't have any issues..

nope, still isnt working.

has anyone else ran into this problem? i looked through about 40 pages yestarday. didnt find anything. ill keep looking today though, but if anyone knows how to fix this please let me know.
Thank you

well, if both zen cart and blog install in the same directory, it works. and even i can quote wp front page in zen cart home page.(but have problem with www prefix, has to redirect).

i think this is not a working mod. please try numix solution which confirmed working.

Hello:

Zen Cart version : 1.3.8a
Word Press version is the current update

I've searched for an answer to my problem but found nothing.

I have Zen Cart installed in the root directory, Word Press is installed in ./blog/

I followed these installation directions to the letter despite Zen cart being in a /shop/ directory:
http://www.geraelindsey.com/zencart-...on-development


I changed the Blog URL (in Wordpress) to my Zen Cart installation in the root directory (ackleysrocks.com/). The side boxes are configured through Zen Cart administration and they function correctly, the breadcrumbs seem to work fine, but the blog post doesn't show up at all. We're using Wordpress as a "newsletter" with the archive listed on the right under Information. My intent was that the most recent blog post would load when the Newsletter link (EZ Pages) was clicked.

In EZ Pages I set the internal link as "?main_page=wordpress"



here's the site:
http://ackleysrocks.com

and the direct link to the blog
http://ackleysrocks.com/blog/



Any guidance in rectifying this configuration dilemma I have would be greatly appreciated. :)
