Need help creating a page for Wholesale?

Hi All,
I want to create a separate page for wholesale members but I don't know how to come along doing this. Will it mess up all the pricing for regular customers (not wholesale customers) if I try to use the Dual Pricing Mod? Are uploading wholesale products going to be different from how I regularly upload my "regular" files through categories/products?

I kind of want something like this page http://www.tradetang.com/. I really like how they have the "Wholesale Zone" tab on the top right but then it's not under the categories on the left.

Is there anyone that could please help me with getting a wholesale page somewhat like that?

Sorry for all these questions, I just really want to get this worked out as soon as I can. :frusty:

Thank you very much in advance! :smile:

My personal opinion is the cleanest, cheapest and least damaging way is to clone your current shop and set it up for login to shop... for wholesale shoppers only.

I'm sorry, I'm still a little novice. Could you explain this a bit further? :cry:

2 stores, a clone is made of your current store to make the stocking and such all easier.

Are you saying I clone the store which means under a different domain and just link it?

Re: Need help creating a page for Wholesale?

I just made a new folder for wholesale. My wholesale is at oembargain.com/wholesale. I made another zencart account for this folder, however, now I have a somewhat dumb question... I'm wondering is there a way I can link the carts together? ;x
