bpeikes Posted March 8, 2006 Posted March 8, 2006 I'm considering using oscommerce for our website www.lenells.com and would like to integrate it into our current website. I definitely don't want to use frames, and I was wondering if you folks had any tips on how to do it. I've looked over the documentation, but there doesn't seem to be any instructions on how to integrate it into an existing site. All I see are instructions on how to "configure" the layout. Is it even possible to easily embed oscommerce?
kgt Posted March 8, 2006 Posted March 8, 2006 Is it even possible to easily embed oscommerce? It's possible. Is it "easy?" Well, that's a relative term. If you're looking for generic documention, you can pretty much give up. There are existing projects that integrate OSC with CMS projects like Mambo/Joomla, but it would require a very long essay to provide exhaustive documention on how to integrate OSC with "a website." It would depend on your website, the language and structure of it, etc. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=i...com&btnG=Search Contributions Discount Coupon Codes Donations
jlr1001 Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 If by, "integration," you mean having OSC's template look like your current site's that's not difficult at all. It is time consuming because you have to customize a few php files. But I certainly did it on my site: www.reidwrite.com/index.php?id=102 If you click on one of the buy now buttons you'll be taken to that respective product in my OSC installation. The mirrored templates give the impression that you're operating in the same "system" even though my CMS and OSC are two totally separate deals. -jlr1001 I'm considering using oscommerce for our website www.lenells.com and would like to integrate it into our current website.
