Open Price Tapestry in Php Nuke

Hi Patrick,

There is no specific way to install Price Tapestry along side PHP Nuke or any other portal system, however what I would suggest is installing Price Tapestry into a sub-directory of your site. You can then incorporate features from your Price Tapestry site up into the top level, for example by including the search box, or links directly to the merchant, category or brand indexes. If you had installed into the /shopping/ directory, you could use the following HTML within your PHP Nuke site at the top level:

Similarly, if you wanted to incorporate a search form, simply view the source to the index page of your Price Tapestry installation, copy the search form HTML (as this will have the required path to the search script), and then paste this into the top level...

Cheers,
David.

Thanks David,
How hard would it be to call Price Tapestry into PHP Nuke. My whole reason for this would be to have an easy way of adding themes that are pre-made for PHP Nuke and add an area for shoppers to write about things. Im a little short on cash right now so i cant afford a look for my site.

But, anyways if it cant be done I understand.

Thanks
Patrick

Hi Patrick,

The scripts are so different really that i'm afraid there isn't any easy and straight forward way to call one into the other. PHP Nuke is designed to have content and posts written for it; not to bring in dynamic, database driven content from another application. That is not to say that they couldn't be integrated, but it would require a lot of custom PHP and Database work to do the integration in exactly the way you want...

Don't forget that you can enable the interaction features to generate product reviews for products on your site - set $config_useInteraction = true; in config.php...

Cheers,
David.
