Writing a template for Cube Cart.

June 14th, 2008

My most recent client project spec is to produce an online shop, while this initially didn’t appear to be an issue for me as I am quite able to create the design. I never once thought how difficult it would be to code the template for that design. It appears that while there are only a hand-full of useful online shop software packages they each use a complex and rarely documented templating system. For this project I have chosen cube cart as it includes many of the mechanisms that my client requires and out of those I have tested it appears to be the most stable and “easy” to design for. I suppose to the first time on looker, the template system utilized by Wordpress would be a little confusing and while I find it easy to use, I have been working with Wordpress for a considerable number of years. I only hope I can get to knowing how to use the Cube Cart template system as easily as I did with Wordpress. Has anyone else developed for cube cart and do you know of any online documentation I may find of use as google has given me nothing but multiple template websites trying to sell me something.
