website integration

I've been snooping around and I see that Zen cart is pretty much like an all-in-one e-commerce management system. I was wondering if Zen Cart can integrate with my current website since it is a purely Adobe Photoshop site. I have set everything up except a shopping cart and I found Zen Cart and thought it was the best solution.

Thanks!

Re: website integration

Short answer, no.

Zencart is designed and intended to be your whole site.

You could style Zencart to look like your current site, but you can't template Zencart just with Photoshop.

Re: website integration

Zen Cart is more advanced than just a backend operation. You'd have to recreate the look of the current site and have Zen Cart run the entire thing. You can find info about creating a custom template in the tutorials/FAQ. There are free templates available at http://(sorry, site offline)/ which might help you get started.

If you mean you are using Photoshop as your HTML Editor then you will run into a problem with "any" eCommerce script. All are based on using multiple files to create a Web page.

If you are willing to use a proper HTML Editor then the Easy Embed module will do what you want.

The learning is in the doing.
