We have been using CS-Cart for a few months now and while it's a great program, I've found that we have needed to make quite a few modifications to the software to make it viable for our needs. And more often than not, I have counted on this forum and its excellent and generous members for knowledge and advice. It would be great if I could actually contribute to this forum with some knowledge and also be able to make the necessary changes we need on our site. I was thinking of taking a PHP course to learn how to make our own modifications. Would this be the primary language I need to learn to program for CS-Cart? Should I take additional courses?
