In need of some help from someone that has a clue about web development!! Basically we have a site and domain which we are busy putting our products onto, now when we asked about adding a shopping cart they started going on about needing a web developer etc.

 

Now i need some help!! I see that paypal offer a shopping cart feature, which the company we are using say can be used but we need a web developer to do it!!

 

Can anyone help me here or point me in the right direction??

Get opencart, really easy to use and plenty of theme for it too.

 

like it so much we were going to use it for our store but I've not had time lately.

Have you used this before? The company we are using mentioned opencart but wasn't sure what the deal was with it!

Also would I need another site if I am using opencart?

No,

 

You simply put the opencart install under a folder on your site, call it store or shop.

 

We actually have an open cart install under http://www.300zx.co.uk/store/ although its not fully operation.

 

 

Also would I need another site if I am using opencart?

Talking to the wife there and she mentioned when she spoke to them they said if we just wanted to use opencart for our site they would host it for us, so may try going down that route then.

 

Thanks!

may I ask what's your current site, who hosts it and manages it?

 

are you using a third party company to look after everything!

Bluepark are very good if you want an all-in-one solution.

Company is domain express, we manage it they host it and help out. TBH we are in the process of setting everything up and the final piece is adding a shopping cart.
