It's only on because I used to have a home page then a link to the shop. Couldn't be arsed messing about with directories as zen had a spaz last time so just stuck a quick redirect on there. | |

quote: Off topic again, i'd also use a htaccess redirect rather than meta redirects as meta redirects are common with spam sites and can cause SEO issues. Back on topic though, agree with Sam in that Opencart is pretty decent and fairly straight forward to use. | |

Yeah i know the crfack with OSC and Zen, but Zen has just left OSC behind! | |

quote: ZenCart is just a "fork" of osC so in essence it's the same platform. It's better than osC in that Zen has a lot of features as standard which you have to manually bolt on/code for the vanilla osC installation. I definately like OpenCart though (the one from the .com website not .org) it's kinda got the look and feel of Magento but without all the overheads. Actually using OpenCart at the moment on my new online shop for computer systems/parts - when I get round to finishing populating the store with products that is :lol: | |

quote: Only issue with that is that I dont want people messing around with the sizes (you could edit the js in page and set it to a different res). I would still prefer to force the image sizing via php on the server side to ensure that I scale correctly ( usually i scale it for zoom, large, medium, thumb ). | |

Having seen Wordpress and AWPCP in action, I wouldn't even consider doing any programming myself. | |

For image re-sizing, use Timthumb, it will let you resize on the fly and caches the output. You can use mod_rewrite to make it fancy and hide what you're doing. | |

You could also consider an ecommerce system, my recommendations are: | |

Wordpress + AWCP (www.awpcp.com) would do the trick, although a lot of the optional modules for AWCP aren't cheap. | |
