Geeklog Forums

This is a really tiny script, but I'm putting it out there in case others will find it useful.

I used to use Cafepress for my clients, and in fact used the CafeScripts code by NotOneBit.com for some time. Unfortunately, CafeScripts is pretty much abandonware; the author indicated to me that he wasn't that interested in maintaining it anymore (even though it's still for sale; caveat emptor).

I've since discovered Zazzle and was pleasantly surprised that they provided a very useful API for embedding your Zazzle store in your own website. It works perfectly with glFusion or Geeklog.

Just go here to download Zazzle Store Builder (and set up a Zazzle Store if you haven't already):
http://www.zazzle.com/mk/sell/tools/storebuilder

You'll probably want to download the documentation as well.

Installation is really quite easy. I copied the contents of the Zazzle Store Builder archive into a directory called "store" on my website, edited include/configuration.php with my Zazzle contributor name and associate ID, and then created a new index.php in the store directory as follows:



I then copied the CSS from /css/zstore.css into the style.css file for the Geeklog themes being used on the website.
