It didn't take long to get the smashing
glass webshop site together and able to take credit card payments online
with paypal and drupal
- a small retailers match made in heaven. This site runs on Drupal 4.7 which
is real sweet, totally intuitive with lots of help it is a beautiful system.
Here is a webshop howto tutorial then:
Get a webserver with a webhost.
It must run PHP and a database - I used MySQL.
I was recommended to get a LAMP server - that acronym is LINUX, Apache, MySQL, PHP.
props to Peter Drupal Blog for the quick howto and link.
How to bulk upload images, thus products to a drupal e-commerce web shop.
I'm going to try this this.
A few folks have asked me how this whole web shop thingy is put together and what do I mean by free software and open source.
My servers run on GNU / Linux. A free operating system (all computer need on to operate).
I use Apache to serve the HTML and multimedia, the content is stored in a database - currently I am using MySQL, and the webscripting language PHP which preprocesses the request for a web page, queries the database and using a template make the web page you are looking at now.
