| It is also interesting to try to design a own homepage in dreamweaver and not only to do some modifications for the oscomshop! Has someone i idea how to start with this, because for this you do need more to know about owcommerce how it is build up? The idea: a own designed shop in CSS and dreamweaver Perhaps i idea for a project or so? Doumawis Note: i try also to install the two serious templatemakers contributions: sts and bts, but i don't have also not insight how to to work with this templatemakers for oscommerce shops? And if i can (possible)make a own design than the step to the 2 templatemakers must be not so much? |

| There is a contribution for doing it all in Dreamweaver. I'm sure I got it from the main OSC site. It gives you all the items to insert into the code, all from a drop down menu system, if I recall correctly. I haven't seen or used it for over a year, and I never did anything more than play with it a few times when I downloaded and installed it in dreamweaver. Here's the location http://www.oscommerce.com/community/...ch,dreamweaver |

I just downloaded the contribution and wil look after it. The difficulty is when you want to make a own template that you must connect oscommerce with this new interface and therefore is the index.php i think a good source to find out what to connect ( therefore you must understand the code on this index.php) Perhaps there is more to find about this?

| You do not modify the index.php file to modify the look of oscommerce. I think the file you are after is main_page.tpl.php This is the file that modifys the look of the hole site. If you want to modify contents on individual pages look for the .tpl.php file corresponding to that section. You can find all the .tpl.php files under Templates->you template-> I would also recommend reading up at the dreamweaver site on using active content and connecting to databases in dreamweaver mx. With active content on you can see the changes and layout with index.php open. Hope this helps |

| thanks! yes the name: main_page.t(em)pl(ate).php is pointing in the direction and all templates are in the templates directory( i did not look there: am curious to see what's in) (So the oscommerce directory is not a back-up ? ) I try to get work in dreamweaver now via " live data" for oscommerce and via index.php it works and get the original site ( i am wondering if it is possible to opena another oscommerce php sit in dreamweaver?=> how via GET?) To do only modifications to the oscommerce shop is boring and i do want have a own storefront and pages( if i can figure it out ofcourse) Do you have also a selfmade oscommerce site?=> yes i saw your profile nice shop, but i should not use the boring grey colours, thus making your site more vivid and alive |

On my remote server in the directory catalog [b]there exist no more[/b the directory templates ( as i can see it now)? In the standard version of oscommerce via the oscommerce website there is a directory templates included, but i think that the static HTML code of the templates is collected on the index.php So what does this says ?: but i think that the (static) HTML code of the templates is collected on the index.php ( i will have to look at this further and a easy way for to see the oscommerce php code is via the coding documentation via osCDox website) => i could not also there discover a map template? Well in my opinion you can make a static html site and give this th extension : .php (this code is done via the browser : client-sided) and the whole index.php is built up of tables ( also nested): you can see easily the structure of the oscommerce site and you now also the includes and the content of the tables. At the moment i do not see what to do with the templates ( i will look further at it) doumawis |
