Hi Guys

I have just installed the basic wordpress cart and there is no reference to using any css files?
What do I need to do here please?

Also, can I copy my existing mysql database (from the ASP version) over the top of the default one that running createdb.php created?

Is there anything else I need to know?

cheers
Ross

Hi Ross

You can add the paths to the css files in header.php. That may get overwritten if you update the theme at any time so the theme may have an area where you can add custom css - if it was me I would add it to header.php and remember to put them back if you update the theme.

Why not change the connection details in db_conn_open.php to the existing database and see what you get as a test, I'm not sure that's going to be viable though.

Hi Andy,

the two sites are on different servers.

IS there any difference in the structure of the databases (assuming same version of the cart?)

cheers

Thinking about it, probably the best way forward is to save header.php as header-ect.php. Then on your store pages use

<?php
$GLOBALS['ectcartpage']='products';
require('./wp-blog-header.php');
get_header(ect);
?>

rather than

<?php
$GLOBALS['ectcartpage']='products';
require('./wp-blog-header.php');
get_header();
?>

That way if you update the theme your css and PHP store include lines in the header will remain untouched.

The database structure is the same.
