Wordpress On ZC [Support Thread]

cyfarian:

Next question...can you have a zencart sidebox with the most recent posts? I didn't see that as one of the sidebox options.

Thanks.

I intend to offer a side box displaying the latest post as another module. (It is not prepared by default in the main body of WordPress)

http://www.s-page.net/en/
I develop the module which Zen-Cart integrates with other CMS. (WordPress and XOOPS)
It may be funny English, but please endure it. (I am weak in English)

andrabr:

Sorry. :no: You will have to plead with Hira (author of the original contrib) - I am not going to fork the code, since I am NOT qualified to support it.

Thank you for follow.
I am developing a module for Wordpress and Zencart into separate directories.
As for it, blog of andrabr is useful very much.:thumbsup:

I'm no php whizz and am struggling with both the integration using Hira's guide and the NOT a Blog guide.

I thought I had done it all and then I found I can access the Zen-Cart admin but everything on the home page and WP-Admin page is now blank.

Would it be displayed normally before adding a theme?
In addition, how is it when you try to return a theme? (In a WordPress management screen)

Hi,

I'm no php whizz and am struggling with both the integration using Hira's guide and the NOT a Blog guide.

I thought I had done it all and then I found I can access the Zen-Cart admin but everything on the home page and WP-Admin page is now blank.

Any ideas?

I am trying to make Zen-Cart and WP work with the N.Design Studio theme as used on s-page.net.

Can anybody advise what it might be?

My url is:

http://www.freeinternetguides.com/

Does anyone have an install set of Zen-Cart 1.3.7/WP2.0.x (can't use 2.1) and the N.Design Studio theme that can be modified and used. Maybe that would be quicker for me as I'm stumped and want to get the site up and not spend time learning php.

Don't get discouraged! Usually the blank screen (like the one I am seeing at your URL now) is a sign of a PHP error. Either you "REQUIRE" a file that is not there, or there is some minor syntactic mistake.

If you have access to your Web server error logs, they would have very helpful information. Apache would even specify the exact line number where the problem occurred (you are likely to see two error messages for each actual error - don't let it confuse you.)

I would let someone more experience advise on PHP debugging strategies...

Re: Wordpress On ZC [Support Thread]

Well I have this installed in the root as one mass and into two directories but am stumped and can't spend any more time on it.

How much would it cost to have someone who knows what they are doing install the following:

Zen-Cart 1.3.7
WP2.0.x (can't use 2.1)
The N.Design Studio theme

Either PM me or send and email to david at robertshawassociates.com with a price if you KNOW what you are doing NOT if you THINK you know what you are doing. This is an easy job for someone who has done it and knows PHP so don't email me and quote mega-$$$$$$.

Regards, David[B]

A hint )
In S-page,
I customized a template of ZenCart to display like [The N.Design Studio theme] in a header, a footer, a style sheet.
And I set it not to display the right column when somebody accesses weblog.

Re: Wordpress On ZC [Support Thread]

Things are working out pretty good with the wordpress contrib. Again, thanks to hira and the other forum members for the helpful hints and tips! :)

I'm stuck on one thing however which...ultimately isn't a big deal if I can't remove, but it would be nice. Heh. Basically, I want to remove the line for comments as it isn't really necessary for my site. I've tried disabling comments in the WP admin but it doesn't really do anything. I've read up on the support forums for WP but I haven't quite been able to get the commenting removed. Any thoughts on this?

Also, I don't know if anyone is using it, but the archive feature for WP has been acting kind of odd. After I set it up the first time, it seems to work and display correctly the archived entries. A couple days later I come back to the site and see that the archive page is blank. What gives? :(

As always, if I find my own solution I will contribute it in here. Until then, more hints please. :)

Chris

Re: Wordpress On ZC [Support Thread]

Oh, another thing I noticed recently is that with the wordpress posts appearing on the front page of my cart, there seems to be a significant lag when loading the entries and the right side of the page.

Everything will load fast until it gets to the middle and the latest post and then it lags for a few seconds before quickly loading the rest of the page. Does anyone else have this problem? It's not really a big deal mind you, but I'm curious if this is something that is to be expected or not.

Re: Wordpress On ZC [Support Thread]

Wordpress is now installed on my server in the same directory as zen cart. However, I can't get the permalinks to work. I find this weird because my seourl on zencart is working really well. You guys have an idea of what is wrong with my setup? If someone is willing to help me I could also show you in the blog admin.

Re: Wordpress On ZC [Support Thread]

That link now takes you to a broken installation of Wordpress.

Can anyone provide a good link to the latest version of Wordpress on Zencart?

Thanks for your support,

Re: Wordpress On ZC [Support Thread]

I've elected to have the wordpress files located in its own folder: (/home/mysite/public_html/blog). After installation, upon turning on the wp_archives and wp_cats sideboxes, I noticed that only the title background is showing (pls. see attachment).

In step 6 of the document, > 6.Change a file name [includes/extra_configures/wp-config.txt] to [includes/extra_configures/wp-config.php]I am assuming that wp-config.txt is really wordpress-config.php. If that is the correct assumption, I've also change the 2 lines in red so that "wp-settings.php" file can be found and the 'ABSPATH' is pointing to the correct path.

<?php
//
// wordpress on zencart by http://www.s-page.net/
//

$woz_install=0;

if (file_exists(DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'blog/' . 'wp-settings.php')) {
	$woz_install=1;

	define('WP_USE_THEMES', true);
	$wp_did_header = true;

	define('DB_NAME', DB_DATABASE);    // The name of the database
	define('DB_USER', DB_SERVER_USERNAME);     // Your MySQL username
	define('DB_PASSWORD', DB_SERVER_PASSWORD); // ...and password
	define('DB_HOST', DB_SERVER);    // 99% chance you won't need to change this value

	// You can have multiple installations in one database if you give each a unique prefix
	$table_prefix  = DB_PREFIX . 'wp_';   // Only numbers, letters, and underscores please!

	// Change this to localize WordPress.  A corresponding MO file for the
	// chosen language must be installed to wp-includes/languages.
	// For example, install de.mo to wp-includes/languages and set WPLANG to 'de'
	// to enable German language support.
	define ('WPLANG', '');

	/* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */

	//define('ABSPATH', './wordpress/');
	define('ABSPATH', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'blog/');

However, I am seeing the following error messages in the sideboxes:

Warning: mysql_error(): 10 is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /home/sensuous/public_html/blog/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 177
Could someone be so kind to let me in on where I have stuffed up? Thanks very much.

Re: Wordpress On ZC [Support Thread]

PM Received from Stenrique regarding his post above..
My response, which may help other members, is as follows:-
Do you have database link correctly configured in sideboxes i.e. archive side box..

  $content = '<ul>'.zen_wp_get_archives('type=monthly').'</ul>';

Above is configuration from my own install which reflects database table for wordpress install as zen_wp
Tips...
WordPress install integrated into zencart slows down
cart performance considerably..
my install was wordpress mod release before current offering
..sideboxes..I reverted to rss sidebox/es instead..
see demo, leftside bottom box, at

Re: Wordpress On ZC [Support Thread]

I've gone through this thread at least 3 times and read the others about Wordpress -- at some point, I think I saw the answer to my problem but now I can't find it.

I have zen cart installed in a directory (catalog) -- my REAL live shop is in the root, but this is my test shop where I want to set up wordpress first. The wordpress files are installed in the "root" of the test shop (in the catalog directory). Isn't there a way to make this work?

It mostly works, I see the wordpress page with menu on the right, the sideboxes are showing up fine. Everything except no posts or pages ever show up. I click on a page and it just doesn't show -- all that I see is "Edit this post" at the top. Or sometimes it says "Not Found". I'm guessing this is because I'm in a directory?

Third day on this -- would really appreciate some help! I'd hate to have to install this in my live shop to test and set up.

Currently using ZEN CART v. 1.3.6

WordPress Module Files are currently at
http://www.s-page.net/products/62.html
magicpants..which version have you installed i.e.
1.2 or 1.3? Makes BIG difference because version 1.2
would only install correctly into zencart using actual
domain..i.e your domain.com and not yourdomain.com/cart
