I am trying to find a way to deal with our current practice in cs-cart.

Currently we release a collection publicly once a month on the first Wednesday. However, wholesale customers are able to get the product the Monday before.

In cs-cart it seems we can only have one date set for everyone, not a date set differently for each different user group.

Is there a known way of dealing with this, or a module that might help?

I am working on a template for my company, and I need to make some changes. Is it best to just modify the template or should I make addons and overwrite some parts of the template?

Where is the "My Account" dropdown template located?

The company I work for is trying to rebuild our full website. We have a master account system already so we don't want to use the built in account system. We are also interested in wrapping a Codeigniter framework around the store for other features on our existing site.

Right now I have it where I can log the user into the store via the Auth API, but I am unsure how to get access to the store session. I have two issues here.

1. CS-Cart is in /shop, so the session cookie path is /shop. This makes it hard to get a hold of the current shop user.

2. The session cookie name is sid_customer_#####. I am not sure how this is being generated.

Is there any way to get this information, or is there a better way to do this? Also is it possible to overwrite the login/registration system with an add-on? We would like the user to sign into our master account system which would then sign them in via the Auth API.

I am trying to move the search box onto our menu which is an html block. Is there a way for me to tell the search block to load inside of an html block?
