Hello,
Is it possible to easily integrate CS-Cart into a Wordpress based E Commerce site.
Have a look here: [url]http://www.caponocca.com/[/url]
The site currently uses the WP-ecommerce plugin which is very buggy and inadequate, its not even working at the moment.
Would it be possible to incorporate CS-Cart into this site easily or would it be a complicated job?
There seems to be a Magento plugin to simplify this:

Is there a CS-Cart equivalent?
Thanks,
Robert
Not that I am aware of. I use a WP plugin called Shopp. It’s not free but it works well. I am currently configuring it for a site I’m working on in WP www.bodytechclub.com, click on the Pro Shop tab. There is an iframe plugin that works well and I suppose you could open your CS-Cart store in that iframe. I use this one at www.ehwebservices.com/web-design. The trick would be to customize the CS-Cart site to be compatible with your WP site but that shouldn’t be too much of a problem.
The common question would be, what do you want to be integrated in your WP;
design or design+functions?
Sure it would be possible, the only thing would be what do you want pay for it.
Bye
Why not dump wordpress and work through cs-cart.
it might be worth thinking through whether this would work for what you want.
You can use it like a CMS but without the shopping cart side.
There is a lot you can do with all the text type pages and forms it creates.
Why I am even going to do it for one site myself and then add the cart later. It was going to be wordpress and then later cs-cart.

The main reason for using WP is not the CMS (WP is not a CMS) or the ability to create pages in an easy way. It’s the built-in RSS and pinging system which promote your site by xxx blogs, crawlers etc. That can’t an other “ready to use” script at the moment.
