Wordpress On ZC [Support Thread]

[cslakans]

I did post on the numinix forum, they suggested contacting the author of the WOZ sidebox module for the correct method of integrating.

I'll let you know if I find a solution, please do the same.

He doesn't speak English and hasn't been around in a while, so help there is doubtful as well! I really want the sidebox, so I'm beginning to think I'm going to have to restore my files and database then install WOZ one version back and that patch by someone else mentioned earlier in this forum. But, I'll give it a little more time just in case someone comes along and helps. Good luck! And keep us posted!

I think I have the same setup as this site. Would you mind showing me your .htaccess file? I just don't understand what I am doing wrong.

Also, what version of word press are you running on this site?

Aloha out there,

I'm having a problem with the template override. It is successfully working for the blog itself but on individual posts, it is utilizing a different format. Take a look here:

http://www.db8zone.com/?main_page=wordpress

vs.

http://www.db8zone.com/blog/?p=21

What have I forgotten? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Best wishes out there in the ether...

I deleted all 1.4 woz and loaded V1.3 and WOZ sidebox. I did change as per Josh instructions. I did see the WP at www.burnerbooks.com/blog at one time. Now, lost my wp page and admin...

I found my wp page, but not admin at: www.burnerbooks.com/?main_page=wordpress

And it has my site to the left of it all bunched together.

My includes/extra_config/word_press.config
define('ABSPATH','/home/xxxxx/public_html/blog/');

How do I get WP without my site? I just want my website to link to it.

And how do I find WP admin?

Thanks, Kim

I did a complete uninstall of EVERYTHING related to WP mod again.
I am going to start over fresh again. I think this may be my third time.

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.

Question:
If I just install WP via my host with control panel...can I just install an editable sidebox and load links on my website? Or maybe even use banners??

Thanks, Kim

Why not use my WOZ Sideboxes Only solution.. It uses ONLY the WOZ sideboxes which brings in the blog links to your store. Then on the WordPress side I added links back to the store by using the links widget and adding top and bottom navigation points back to the Zen Cart store.

Take a look at these site to see how I handled linking the blog back to the store:
http: // hairisle . com
http:// lanikshair . com

These are just a few ways this can be achieved.. I'm sure you can think of other ways to execute this..

I did try the WOZ sidebox option with ver 1.3...and I could not get it to work. It is on one of posts I submitted to this thread. My site was on top of WP and could not get admin back...

Then you had to have installed it incorrectly.. My sidebox only solution DOES NOT embed the blog at all.. In fact it removes all the blog embedding elements so that all you are left with is the sideboxes.. If you tried to install WOZ 1.3 and ONLY use the sideboxes, you might get the result you are describing.. Did you follow my posted instructions for how to use WOZ with ONLY the sideboxes or use the WOZ sideboxes only zip file I posted in this support thread??

I followed Josh's instructions. Where is the link to yours? I will try it again. Thank you.

I want to make sure I do it correct...load WP from host, load v.1.3 (downloads area) and load your sidebox install?

No.. Josh's instructions have NOTHING to do with the WOZ Sideboxes Only solution.. His install instructions are only for WOZ.. The WOZ Sideboxes Only solution is NOT installed ON TOP OF the WOZ module.. It is installed INSTEAD OF the WOZ module.. (It is meant to be a completely different module which is BASED ON WOZ v1.3.. There is a readme file included which explains how to install it.. You would NOT run the two together..)

If you search this thread you will find this link and all the other postings I've done regarding this solution.. (Including a WOZ Recent Posts sidebox) http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showpo...postcount=1036
