Regina Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Hey Everyone, Just wanted to intruduce myself. Im new to the board and am hoping to get some information so that I am able to start my own online shop. I have some experience with programing and web design but am still very unfamiliar with osCommerce, so I'll probably be asking alot of newbie questions. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GraphicsGuy Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Welcome to the community! :) Like Wendy said, there are a lot of great people here that can help you out. And just about every problem that you might run into has already been discussed. If you don't find the answer already discussed, post your question as clearly and with as much descriptive info as possible and most of the time someone will be able to help you out very soon, often within minutes. To help you get the most out of the forums potential to help you, I encourage you to spend a minute reading the advanced usage help on the forum search page. Another useful searching technique is to use Google with the domain filter set to www.oscommerce.com/forums. Another powerful resource for helping you get started is the osCommerce 2.2 Milestone 2 Documentation. It is important to note the difference between this documentation and the Knowledge Base which is written towards supporting the next milestone release. Much of the info is the same, but some of it isn't and the screen shots won't match. Yet another very important resource that can help you accomplish what you want to with your store is the Contributions section. In that section you will find almost 3000 "contributions" that add special features and capabilities. And support for those contributions can be found in the Contribution Support channel of these forums. Rule #1: Without exception, backup your database and files before making any changes to your files or database. Rule #2: Make sure there are no exceptions to Rule #1.
