Osc, CRE loaded?

[mckaylaleigh]

I am somewhat new to ecommerce developement and totally new to oscommerce as I usually use cs cart. I have a client who wants some changes to her site and a possible upgrade from her current version, but I am a little confused. I tried to find the version in the application_top.php as others have said to look, but all it said was:

 

 

// define the project version

include('includes/version.php');

 

So I then opened version.php and this is what it had in it:

 

<?php

// define the project version

define('PROJECT_VERSION', 'CRE Loaded v6.2 B2B');

define('PROJECT_PATCH', '08');

define('INSTALLED_VERSION_MAJOR', '6');

define('INSTALLED_VERSION_MINOR', '2');

define('INSTALLED_VERSION_TYPE', 'B2B');

define('INSTALLED_PATCH', '08');

 

?>

 

 

I have absolutely no clue what CRE Loaded is (other than what I googled) and I am still at a loss as how it is tied in with the oscommerce site I am trying to make some changes to. Any advice here would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you!

Creloaded is a fork started from oscommerce, it is still simular, but does contian a LOT of core code changes.

Thanks for the reply, I am still confused. So when you have cre loaded, is it NOT oscommerce? When I log into the admin side, it says oscommerce. How would creloaded interfere with wanting to upgrade to the newer version osc?

It makes it fairly complicated to upgrade.

 

 

You should eigher go to the cre loaded forum and proceed to use and upgrade to the latest cre loaded version

 

or

 

make a brand new shop based on the latest oscommerce version and then just transfeer over the products from the old shop

Thanks guys, with you help and a little more Googling I was able to wrap myself around it a little more. Looks like I got my work cut out for me!
