Integrate Oscommerce catalog into Web site


Guest

Recommended Posts

Hi

 

I'm very new to osCommerce development. I have managed to get catalog up and running, I've also modified the style and feel to look like my own web site.

Currently the catalog is standalone from my commercial site. I would like to integrate the catalog tree into my commercial site, so that when a customer clicks on the a link in my commercial site it takes them into the Catatog. I'm sure someone has come across this before. Any ideas or howto's

 

Thanks

I might be stating the obvious, but why not just put a link to your store in your site's navigation?

 

(which is how I've done it myself).

It is VERY VERY simple to do.. Basically, you would need to make the MAIN sites .php instead of .html then, you create your table where you want the category tree to show in the box, then you just use the include(categories_box.php) (or whatever code it is that you choose to use)

 

I have done this on some of my "plain" .php pages that are not oscommerce be using the include(header.php) so the header is present through out.. It worked just fine.

A great place for newbies to start

Thanks Charlene!! I've tried that! I think I might have to go back to that method. The problem I was getting was no display. I think it might be that I've got two style sheet and the location of those style sheet. The general respone seems to be add a link. I look further into making the link work!

 

I'll let you all know the outcome!!

 

Thanks
