Guest Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 I have been working on my online business for a year now. At the moment I am paying someone to edit my oscommerce site which can get pricey. Is it possible to make changes myself, I do not know php or any other programming language. Does anyone have any suggestions Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonabc Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 At the moment I am paying someone to edit my oscommerce site which can get pricey. When you say edit - do you mean add/edit products, stick stuff on special offer etc? If so - you're being taken for a ride. You can do all this quickly/simply yourself using OSC's Admin Tool. No knowledge of any programming language is needed. (only reason I ask is because a new client of mine who had an OSC store was totally unaware of the Admin Tool. The 'developer' had kept it secret and charged her a large hourly rate to add new products etc when all he was doing was a couple of minutes point and click in the Admin Tool) Jason My Contributions: Paypal Payflow PRO | Rollover Category Images | Authorize.net Invoice Number Fix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not changes to products, special orders e.t.c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClefRock Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 I'm an old fan of php, personally I would suggest getting a HTML editor like dreamweaver, and installing the STS script. With the edits to 1 file, you can manually change the entire layout of your site. Like I said being a fan of php, I enjoy the ability to call on demand, however the STS script allows you to edit and still have time to live your life :) I would suggest uploading a 2nd cart to your FTP site with a different folder name, and installing it, and attempting the STS addon. The documents explain everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
