How to integrate Zen-Cart into WordPress
This has been coming for a little while now, however version one has finally hit the road. The functionality at this point of time still is at a starting point however the main thing I needed for my own site was to be able to display all products of a given Zen-Cart category in a WordPress page, this now allows me to have a page for every category that I then display in a drop-down menu. The great thing about this is that all products get read dynamically as changes happen in en-Cart, I used to have to update all changes manually in WordPress, which I would sometimes forget besides the extra work it requires.
Once I had this up and running on my site I found that I had to manually insert all the links to the category pages on the products page. Since visitors can click directly on the root page as well. To also have this dynamic and to be able to display all product category pages as icons on any page or post I added another function to be able to do this as well. So this is what’s in the first release.
The next release will include a widget to display the featured product(s) as they are defined in Zen-Cart as well as a html framed option of displaying Zen-Cart directly in a WordPress page.
