Re: Best Cart and Why
I know what your asking xppman, and I think that maybe one of those script sites might be where you'e want to look for "just a cart," but ZenCart, OsCommerce, and the others are the whole deal. Here's a random example of a ZenCart store. Without a lot of modification made to them, they all have this same basic layout: http://holzheimers.com/index.php

Well if anyone has more than an "I don't think so" answer. I would appreciate it. [/quote]Sorry. I know I need to be more assertive. But it is open source code, which means people have probably twisted it every imaginable way, and then some. |

Well I've got the Zen cart. Don't I need to load the program to MySQL data base on TT. (Once I'm signed-up and have access to FTP I mean) [/quote] ZenCart, and the other carts all require MySQL databases but all of the programs have automated setup programs that setup the database for you. The section below on mods applies to Zen, but the same process applies osC and Cube except the changes must be done through your hosting control panel instead of the cart's admin section. (below is a copy and paste of what I just wrote in a PM ![]() You can use Zen without ever learning anything about MySQL. During installation the program automatically sets up the database--all you have to do is tell the installation program the name of your database/database password/database IP, and the installation program does the rest. Some mods require database changes but those can be done through the admin panel--all you do is (depending on the mod) either copy and paste or upload a file through the admin and it will make all necessary changes. |

Re: Best Cart and Why
I've been reading a lot about it getting an overview.
Seems like it wont be that hard at all. I'm some what of an advance user in other areas, this is just an area I've never explored yet and real excited to get into it. From what I'm reading the possibilities are pretty unlimited as to the scope of what I can do with a FREE Zen cart. For example seems I read I can up sell with a cart for a particular product that pulls up other items to "suggest" the buyer add to compliment the main product / purchase. ![]() Like Tiger Direct does. Go buy a mother board and it recommends or "suggests" ram, hard drives stuff like that. right in the cart That as well as a cost effective way to cut overhead has sparked my interest on setting up and using my own cart on your system. I'd probably already be there, except the old Yahoo servers don't give you access or ability to create an My SQL data base, just mita data. Thanks for the info, I can't wait to get into it. Every time I'm ready those pesky customers start ordering again. ![]() PS I don't expect you fine TT heads to hold our hands and do it all for us, but great to know if a Q comes up you got our backs. ![]()
