Zen Cart – Adding jQuery Tabbed Content Box to Zen Cart EZ Pages

23 Nov

(Using Zen Cart 1.3.8a)

1. jQuery source:

http://net.tutsplus.com/javascript-ajax/create-a-tabbed-interface-using-jquery/

2. Zen Cart integration:

- CSS: Delete “*” and “body” classes from file. Put in template’s css folder (root/includes/templates/CUSTOM TEMPLATE/css). I changed file name from “style.css” to “style_tabbed_content.css”.

- Javascripts: Put all 3 javascript files in jscript folder (root/includes/templates/CUSTOM TEMPLATE/jscript). Must also add jscript_ text to the beginning of each file name (ie: change “jquery-1.2.6.min.js” to “jscript_jquery-1.2.6.min.js”) – this allows Zen Cart to link to your custom javascript via the custom template system.

- HTML: Open original index.html file, copy everything between body tags and paste into an EZ Pages page. HTMLarea must be ON in EZ Pages setup.

Manual Credit Card Processing Shopping Carts

30 Oct

Website client has a need for manually processing credit card orders because he already has a credit card terminal in his office and doesn’t want to incur any extra gateway processing fees.

Magento and Zen Cart have successfully passed the “manual credit card processing” test.

  • Magento keeps the full 16-digit credit card number in the admin back-end
  • Zen Cart keeps half of the 16-digit credit card number in the admin back-end and emails you the other half
